Ministry Building & Growth Program

An answer to requests

As an answer to a common request we've received over the last 10 years of our existence as Street Bishops Ministries, we are not only starting an education program, but are changing the way we accept potential ordination candidates.

The new program

Beginning February 10th, 2010, for an individual to be considered for ordination with Street Bishops, they will need to have been a subscribing and participating member in our Ministry Building & Growth Program for at least 60 days. This program will begin primarily as an online conference as an open discussion and answer period once a week, or more often if it appears that is necessary.

Program goals and whom it is designed for

The goal is not only to access the seriousness of an individuals desire to serve, but to start them off with a passion to move forward to take action in the area of service to which they believe God has called them. In addition, this will provide existing ordained clergy with Street Bishops and opportunity to also obtain ideas, strategies, and resources for growing their own ministries. And finally, an opportunity for those who are not ordained but wish to serve more proactively and knowledgeable in the churches they attend or the community to take away ideas, skills, and resources as well.

Topics

Some example topics to be covered include:

  • Starting a new church
  • Growing a church with little or no money
  • Harnessing the power of the internet
  • Outreach programs - what works, what doesn't
  • Legal liability, counseling ethics, and other risk management
  • Fundraising (this will be the topic one week each month)
  • Wedding officiating, for outreach and revenue generation
  • Taxation: What are our responsibilities, do we need non profit status?
  • Preparing for public speaking, good messages, worthwhile church
  • Communications - strategies that work.
  • Messaging: Know what you are selling and why and breaking through.
  • and much, much more

How will the program be delivered?

Rev. Lance Orndorff, the the Executive Director and presiding Bishop of Street Bishops will be the moderator of an online and recorded meeting. For those who have video cameras, we will be able to see you, for those who can only call in, we'll hear you. When documents are presented online, you'll see them. When video clips are shown, you'll see and hear them. And for those who miss the meeting, it can be made accessible to you for a period of time on the web for review.  The target length for each workshop will be one hour, but if it continues on for a maximum of two hours, then that will will do that.

Program Access

To have access to the conferences will require that each participant subscribe via PayPal payment subscription at a rate adjusted according to their history with Street Bishops. The rate will be as follows:
