You are invited to join Cadre for...

Equip Ministries Christian Worker's Conference

Friday and Saturday, February 21-22, 2014
Peoria Christian School in Peoria, IL.

Dave and Rennie Garda will be doing these four training lab experiences on both Friday and Saturday...

Kavanah: A Missing Disciplemaking Concept
Dave and Rennie Garda, www.cadreministries.com
Included in this workshop will be a first-century rabbi's disciplemaking glossary and the practical insights needed for God dependent ministry. We'll use youth ministry as an example, but the principles shared will be valued by those who work with families (even our own), children, youth, men and women. We'll explore the first-century teaching and training style of disciplemaking teachers and explore ways to bring these values into our ministries and families.

Why Youth Ministries Fail... and Is Yours Next?
Dave and Rennie Garda, www.cadreministries.com
Encouragement on how to thrive and not just survive the adventure of being a youth worker in 2013. For all volunteer and paid youth leaders.

Pop Goes the Christian! What Makes You Spiritually POP?
Dave and Rennie Garda, www.cadreministries.com
What is the simplest effective environment for "popping" disciples? Why do some disciples find their way into ministry roles while other believers seem satisfied to pew sit? What are your missing ingredients in your disciplemaking journey? This workshop will be shared in what Cadre Ministries calls a Disciplemaking Learning Community context. We trust that you'll learn as much from how this workshop is shared as you will from the teaching lessons we'll engage.

For Those Who Are CRAZY About Middle School Ministry
Dave and Rennie Garda, www.cadreministries.com
We'd like to experience a community time of sharing the adventures and insights of the unique challenges of Middle School Ministry (Grades 5-6 and 7-8). We'll share key insights and some free tools to help you, but we want to hear your heart and questions for middle school ministry as well. So call this a 50/50 workshop... 50% planned equipping and encouragement and 50% hearing and learning from one another. Let's come together to learn more about how to engage with the BATTERIES INCLUDED GENERATION.
