ASK YOUR PASTORS
Our next Business Owners Breakfast will be on Wednesday, August 20, at 7:30am, in the Hub at Christ Community Church St Charles/South Elgin Campus, and we will have the special opportunity to hear from and ask questions of new lead pastors Eric Ferris and Clayton Keenon. We would love for you to join us!
Eric and Clayton will discuss “how do we as leaders deal with disappointment, discouragement, and loss?”
In addition, you will have the opportunity to submit questions the nature of which you would value a pastor’s perspective. Eric and Clayton are seasoned leaders and, as we know, have a gifted ability to apply God’s Word to everyday situations. We’d love this to be a time of addressing real questions and hearing from God through our leaders. This is a great time to come, meet other business leaders, gain new perspectives and be encouraged! This breakfast is our expression of gratitude to you for what you are doing in the community, in your customers' and employees' lives, and in our church. So there is no cost to you. We will begin at 7:30am and conclude promptly by 9am. Feel free to invite a friend.
