CBMC Mid-Atlantic: Newsletters

Almost 150 men meet together weekly among our 29 Mid-Atlantic CBMC teams. They enjoy fellowship, ministry training, praying for the lost, and planning how to be better “Missionaries in the Marketplace.”

Special thanks to the local team members who helped me man the CBMC Booth at the Christian Business Expo in Cherry Hill, New Jersey.

In this issue, Bill White writes about a February retreat in the Pocono Mountains, which John Rhoades calls "a fantastic time skiing and getting to know the guys better." There's a profile on the CBMC group in Franconia and summaries of three upcoming events: Family Time Out, Schroon Lake Family Retreat, and the 75th Anniversary Celebration.

In this newsletter, read what's going on in the region and offer your feedback as a young man in the ministry.

In this newsletter, Scott Newcomer addresses five focus areas for 2006. 1. Securing the Mid Atlantic Budget, 2. Develop Existing Teams, 3. Leverage Cross Team Relationships, 4. Nurturing New Teams, 5. New Forums Teams.

Scott Newcomer gives some thoughts on ministry in the business world and summarizes the recent celebration dinner. See photos from the dinner here. Also see the announcements for the February men's conference and this summer's family conference.
