Evangelical Church Marketing Retreat March 2025

Come join us at the Evangelical Church Marketing Retreat in March 2025 to learn, connect, and grow your Church's outreach strategies!

Please note: Ticket prices only include admission to the retreat and lunch during the week (Monday-Friday, March 17-21, 2025). Plane tickets, hotel, and meals aside from lunch aren't included.

We will likely have a small snack in the conference part of the retreat.

We would also like to have some activities the Friday before and the Monday after, as well as the weekends before and after, if you'd like to take part, but these are optional and are at cost (shouldn't be too expensive, but that depends on what we end up doing and aren't required).

Please write us at support@faithventuremedia.com if you're needing help getting a hotel, and we'll see how we can help you.

On Monday, we will focus on the Church website as the central hub for your digital ministry.

Tuesday is about using technology to serve the Church more effectively, freeing up time for ministry by automating routine tasks.
