The Words of the Hunter Family |
The momentum continues to build! On the heels of five very successful witnessing summits in Los Angeles, Washington DC, Chicago, New Jersey and San Francisco, we are happy to announce the 6th National Witnessing Summit to be held at the University of Bridgeport, in CT, Friday, June 13th to Sunday, June 15th, 2008. All participants should plan to arrive by 5 PM on Friday evening. The program will close by 2:00 pm. (Flights should not depart before 4:00 pm on Sunday)
Each district is asked to send five 2nd generation participants and two1st generation participants. It is our hope that through attendance at these summits strong teams will emerge in each district to carry forth the spirit of the summits and the heart of witnessing locally. Please choose participants who are motivated and excited to participate in this witnessing development. Details will be sent out within the next couple of days.
Please arrange all flights into Hartford, CT or La Guardia. Both are 75 minutes away. The train is just 5 minutes away from UB so it would be best to arrive by Amtrak. More details about transportation from the airports will be forthcoming.
