Missions Conference Themes
Have you ever wished you could come up with a theme
for your mission’s conference that would have more of an impact
on your church? Have you ever wondered where other churches came
up with their mission’s conference themes? Then this is the
place for you.
The following list of Conference Themes is meant
to help churches choose a theme that will impact the annual mission’s
conference. Picking the right theme is very important. Your theme
will give direction to both the speaker as well as those in charge
of the music program. Also, the decoration team will have a foundation
on which to base the decorations for the conference.
In picking a theme, there are several factors to
keep in mind.
First, consider the needs of your church at the
time of the conference. If you sense a need for more prayer, then
you need to emphasize prayer through your theme. (ex. Holding The
Ropes Through Prayer”)If your financial giving towards missions
is down, then you should pick a theme that will keep this before
the people. (ex. “Investing In Eternity”If you are asking
God to call out more laborers from your church, then choose your
theme accordingly. (ex. “If You Don’t Go, Who Will?”)
You may want to emphasize “Vision”, Sacrifice”,
“Preaching”, “Church Planting”, “Rewards
of Reaping in the Harvest” or something special that is on
your heart.
Secondly, consider the themes and emphasis of your
past conferences. Decide on a different theme that will call special
attention to your next conference. Be creative in choosing the theme.
Thirdly, you may want to base your theme around
a certain passage or verse in Scripture. The list provided below
comes ready with a list of suggested passages you might use in considering
certain themes.
Fourthly, a well-picked hymn with a mission’s
emphasis may be used to choose your theme. This hymn may be sung
at the beginning of each service as a reminder of the conference
theme.
Last, but not least by any means, remember to pray
about your theme. Although we are offering a list to help stimulate
your thoughts and creativity, it is vitally necessary to pray and
ask for the Lord’s direction in picking your theme. Be sure
to follow the Spirit’s leading in this.
Use your theme to promote the up-coming conference.
Use it in your bulletins and conference brochure. It is a good idea
to have a banner made in order to put up in back of the platform
area. You may want to design a PowerPoint presentation with the
theme so that it can be used at some specific time(s) of the services.
Once your theme is chosen, be sure to advise everyone
involved with the conference. The participants should have enough
notice so as to be able to plan their part (messages, music, decorations,
etc.) around the theme of the conference.
If you have a very talented musician in the church
you may request that a hymn or chorus be written that specifically
deals with the theme. Sing it each evening before the service, or
even before leaving the service.
The themes listed below may be used as they are
or you may want to do a variation of any of the suggestions. Hopefully,
there are some titles you can use and others that will get your
creative, mental juices stirred to develop your own theme.
Finally, if you do come up with other theme suggestions,
we would love to hear about them and possibly add them to our list
for the benefit of others. If you find a passage that seems to fit
a certain theme perfectly, let us know and we can add it to our
list as well. We are always looking for more ways to assist others
in fulfilling their part in the Great Commission. We appreciate
any help you may give us that would be beneficial to other churches.
