Transcript

Hello, family. This is President Jenkins, and I want to talk about something that’s central to who we are: supporting the local church. Converge exists to come alongside pastors and leaders like you as you pursue your unique calling in Christ. We’re not about handing out rigid models or rules. Instead, we offer resources, building blocks, so your church can be healthy, it can thrive, whether it’s through training programs, mentoring relationships, or practical tools. We want to empower you to be a great leader, so you can better care for yourself, your family, and your congregation. As a matter of fact, through our network, you have access to HR services, financial planning, a wide range of support ensuring you and your church are equipped for long-term impact. So if you’re looking for support, I encourage you to lean into the relationships and the community that Converge offers. Connect with fellow leaders, find mentors who can walk with you through the challenges and take advantage of the resources we provide through your local regions. As we come together, we are stronger, and that’s the power of being part of this movement. We’re here to help you, whether you’re navigating leadership, facing cultural challenges, or looking for new opportunities to grow. And speaking of coming together, I want to personally invite you to the Converge Together Conference in 2026. It’s my heart’s desire to see you there. Whether you’ve just become a part of Converge, have been with us for many years, or are still prayerfully considering joining this movement, this gathering will be for you. It’s a time to be encouraged, equipped, and united as we press forward in God’s mission together. So remember, you’re not in this journey alone. Converge is here to support you in every step of your journey. Together we are advancing the Kingdom one church at a time. Stay encouraged, stay connected, and I look forward to seeing you at The Together Conference.
