We have just completed our first Vital Signs diagnostic clinic. Here are some of the comments made by those who attended:
"The
Vital Signs Clinic has been one of the most invigorating 2 day
experiences that I have ever had . The sessions were informative and
the group interactions were priceless. These two days have been the key
to taking my ministry to the next level. I highly recommend anyone who
can to put Vital Signs on your schedule for next year."
Mark Gidley
Faith Worship Center
"This
clinic not only informed me, but equipped me. I left not only with
action steps and a sense of direction, but courage for the future."
David Lucas
Mission Possible Ministries
"This is the most useful and informational clinic EVER. I left with resources that can ACTUALLY be implemented at my church."
Scott King
Cross Pointe Church
"Vital
Signs has been the best out of all the conferences I have attended. The
information is very abundant but practical, It has made my dreams
reachable and a lot easier to put into practice. Vital Signs has been
more helpful and equipping for pastoring than all of my years of
college. My advice: Spend a little bit of money and get a lot."
John Lear
Freedom's Way Assembly of God
Because
we know how much this clinic can change your life and ministry, we plan
to offer four more Vital Signs clinics in 2010. As you know, we are
limited to only 50 people per clinic because of our small group
setting.
Here are the dates for 2010:
March 3-5
May 12-14 Vital Signs II
(Only available to those who have attended a previous clinic)
September 15-17 Vital Signs: STAFF ONLY
NO SENIOR PASTORS ALLOWED!
November 17-19
We
have changed our 2010 format to 3 days with no evening sessions. This
will give you some free time to enjoy St. Louis and maybe do some
sight- seeing or shopping with your spouse. If you are unfamiliar with
Vital Signs, here is what all the excitement is about:
You will
be completing
questionnaires designed to evaluate the eight major systems in your
church. I will give a brief seminar at the beginning of each
session, and then you will work through the diagnostic questions in
your notebook. Next, the small group facilitator will lead the group in
a discussion to evaluate their church in that area. This will be a
very intense workshop and is only intended for those who are serious
about wanting to grow a healthy church, and are willing to work at it.
It is three days filled with long hours of analyzing your
church from top to bottom. This will be an exhausting, but
eye-opening experience for the pastors who are selected to attend.
Church
consultants can cost anywhere from $1500 - $5000. They are very
expensive and you usually get a sight inspection, with a critique
report at the end. This clinic will give you so much more than that!
It will give you answers to questions you have been asking for years.
Vital Signs will also show you how to develop a two year plan that will
set your church and ministry on a course for spiritual, financial and
numerical growth.
