Missional Entrepreneurship Immersion
Wednesday, Jan. 29 4 PM – Friday, Jan. 31 11 AM
Riverside Presbyterian Church/Ridgetop Coffee and Tea, Sterling VA
This is deep dive into repurposing your facility for mission, hosted by the Missional Incubator of the National Capital Presbytery and Fresh Expressions US.
What if the best way to connect with people in a diverse and rapidly changing world is not with another church program or better preaching?
Churches just like yours are opening missional businesses, such as workout studios, produce markets, surf shops, indoor play areas, ice cream fountains, game cafes, coffee shops, and more—not just as income-producing businesses, but also to connect and build meaningful relationships in an increasingly disconnected world.
Churches just like yours are repurposing their properties to leverage them, not just for monetization, but also for greater mission impact with a vision for new forms of faith community to emerge. From tiny-home villages to art studios, to day care centers, to nonprofit hubs, and more…your church can shift from a one-day-a-week gathering place for a few church members to a hub of relational connections and new faith communities.
Join us for an immersion experience at Riverside Presbyterian Church. Enjoy coffee and conversation in their coffee shop, Ridgetop Coffee and Tea, and experience for yourself what can happen when a facility becomes a community hub. Learn from leaders who have navigated this shift in their own congregations, and dive into deep discussions with peers who are captivated by this possibility. Take advantage of breakout sessions around the practicalities of this entrepreneurial approach to ministry. Explore Biblical foundations for the mission and engage in whole-hearted worship to reconnect with God’s purpose for your life, your leadership, and your church.
