For those launching or growing a business, a ministry area, or a special project ... or if you’re involved in helping them as a resource or service provider, we’d love to have you participate with us. Together, we'll strive to move forward in ways that positively represent Jesus Christ. Starting and growing a business or venture can be challenging at the best of times. To do this in a way that’s true to your principles and values as a follower of Christ may seem humanly impossible ... and at times that‘s absolutely true! The good news is that you’re not alone on the journey. Others are also walking this road ... and in walking together, the way is made easier! Our PROGRAM is collaborative and includes those within the Christian business and professional community. We’re cultivating an environment where fellow believers can grow into strong pillars within their local churches, support that work and other ministries as the Lord may direct. Our VISION: “To become more effective in honouring Jesus Christ wherever God has us in the ‘Marketplaces’ of life.” Our THEME: “Shaping a Venture that Honours Christ!” Our TOPICS for the five meetings planned over the season: 1.
