NoBA Research Team Request

TWO SPECIAL NOTICES:

RESEARCH TEAM -The Research Team of NoBA is now being formed. If you
enjoy researching data, solving denominational and congregational puzzles
and want to provide quality informative tools that have a factual basis
... this team might be for you. Inquisitive people are welcomed.

If this sounds like you and you'd like additional information, contact Dr.
Mike Stewart at domccba@gmail.com. If interested in being a part of this
team, send your current resume to the same address.

We are looking for a wide variety of backgrounds for the research team.
You will need to have 4 - 6 hours per week available to do research and to
dialogue with team members. Six team members will be selected by August 1,
2008. A researched presentation is expected to be ready by NoBA's 2009
Associational SUMMIT conference. May the Lord bless each of you.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SURGERY - Sid Hopkins has requested that I notify you that for the next
two to three weeks there will not be any contacts or work related to any
of our NoBA Communication tools (i.e. Website, mailing lists, newsletters,
etc., except for our Facebook group, which Mark Millman manages). This
is due to the fact that I am required to have surgery on Monday morning
(June 30, 2008) at 10:00. I apologize for the inconvenience that this may
cause, but it is unavoidable.

Updates related to my surgery will be posted on our "Personal Prayer
Journal" at www.findMIchurch.org/Prayer. Thanks for your prayers.

Announces Focus of 2009 Summit

SUMMIT ANNOUNCEMENT
The National Leadership Team of NoBA announced earlier this week that ENTREPRENEURIAL LEADERSHIP will be the focus of training at the 2009 Associational Summit in Fort Worth, TX. This is one of the four Essential COMPETENCIES determined to be necessary for associational ministry. There will be multiple sessions that will be a part of the new CERTIFICATION process that is being developed by the NoBA Education Team.
      Additional competency training will take place in 2009 including a March 2009  NoBA regional training event in Michigan.
      Other topics will also be covered in breakout sessions during the 2009 SUMMIT. We anticipate opening our 2009 SUMMIT registration and having more complete information available by late August or early September.
