2026 Flourish Conferences

Ministry assistants are called by many names: Church Administrative Assistant, Church Ministry Assistant, Church Secretary and more.

A time to gather, celebrate and invest in those serving in this unique ministry. Ministry Assistants enjoy a morning of spiritual encouragement and spend the afternoon immersed in Practical Tools & Resources to enhance ministry organization and performance. Plus, there will be a session on Personal Evangelism. The afternoon will offer opportunities for veterans and those new to this ministry role.
