Hello BRN Family, it’s good to be with you today!

Your church will soon receive a postcard highlighting the details of this year’s Baptist Resource Network Accelerate Conference and annual business session and gathering on Tuesday, October 4.

The Accelerate Conference, which will be held at the Sheraton Harrisburg Hershey Hotel, will feature WinterJam Speaker Shane Pruitt, who is the National Next Gen Director for the North American Mission Board. Shane, whose personal blog has over 3 million viewers, is also a traveling communicator, evangelist, and Bible teacher. Every year he speaks to tens of thousands about the good news of Jesus Christ. In fact, Shane and his wife, Kasi, were featured as ABC’s Nightly News “Persons of the Week” in August 2017.

We will kick off “SHOW,” Phase 2 of BRN’s #LovePASJ initiative, which will focus on evangelism and compassion ministry. SEVEN, the worship team from Messiah University, will lead us in worship; and there will be several breakout sessions and networking opportunities for you!

As always, we also will feature an exhibit area. The BRN is pleased to provide high quality sponsor and vendor packages every year. Do you or someone you know want to sponsor or be an exhibitor for the conference? If so, I invite you to contact the Helpdesk at helpdesk@brnunited.org to receive our Sponsor/Vendor packet, which details all the many ways we can acknowledge you before our many churches.

Also, some more good news: In spite of the rising costs of inflation, the BRN team has been able to keep meal costs in line with last year’s conference. We also plan on giving away gas cards as door prizes! We hope you will join us!

Be sure to check out our Accelerate Conference website at www.acceleratepasj.com for all the latest details. I earnestly urge you to pray for this conference, which is specifically designed to encourage our churches and pastors to accelerate Kingdom movement in Pennsylvania/South Jersey and beyond. Thank you and God bless you!
