Greetings Friends!

power-tenWe need your help!  The 4th Equipping the Saints Dance & Worship Arts Conference is quickly approaching!  Each year, the Lord continues to amaze us by saturating us with HIS presence as He equips the saints for ministry.  In addition to the high operating costs, we typically sponsor 20-30 attendees that would not be able to attend otherwise. We also strive to support an entity outside of the conference.  This year, it is our desire to provide additional support to the people in Haiti.

Your donation of $10 or more  will be pooled with the generous contributions from other like-minded supporters to further equip us to reach and support the masses. That’s the POWER OF TEN!

Sending your donation is easy!  Simply click on the button or link below and you’ll be redirected to the PayPal payment processor where you can complete your donation online with a debit card.  Any amount that you can share would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your consideration!

Serving Because of HIM!

Kingdom Greetings!

Every year the Lord blesses me with a phenomenal group of volunteers to assist with conference operations.  This year is no different!  We have an awesome group and have been preparing behind the scenes so when September arrives we may serve you with excellence!

Below is a group photo from our last staff meeting.  If you find yourself at the conference and needing assistance, look for one of these familiar faces or myself and we'll be happy to serve you!

Adrienne has also been at Equipping the Saints since the beginning, though she joined the staff in 2008.  She serves the staff / volunteers so they can effectively serve you all!

Evangelist Tyean Boyd / Min. LaTonya Thomas (Conference Intercessors)
Ensure we are spiritually prepared for the assignment!  Equip the staff by organizing and facilitating teaching, training, prayer calls etc.  Saturate the atmosphere with prayer and praise before each evening service with the praise warrior crew!

Rhonda Love / Kelly Shaw (Registration)
These ladies have also been involved since EQS began in 2007.  As leaders of the registration team they will be some of the first faces you see at Equipping the Saints.  They are preparing administratively for a smooth process for you all!

Min. Lonnie Hampton / Charles Heard (Photos / Videos)
You may not see Lonnie and Charles face as much because he spends a lot of time behind the cameras!  They capture the history of the conference with still images and videos

Elder James Clemmons (Sound)
Romans 10:14 says How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?

Elder Clemmons is our sound technician and makes sure we can HEAR the preached word and worship music.

Minister Anthony Fane (Transportation / Security)
Anthony joined the staff in 2009.  He oversees our offsite transportation and the safety of our guests. 

Lisa Johnson (Daily Sessions Coordinator)
Lisa is another staffer that's been around since the beginning!  This year she'll oversee daily operations and keep us running smoothly and on time. 

Min. Meri Wrest (Atmosphere & Processions)
Meri reached out to me and I am so glad she did!  This is her first year with the EQS staff but you wouldn't know it!  She will be working with Pat Anderson, Banners of Praise to create a visually AMAZING environment for worship!  She'll also be working with 15-25 dance ministers to participate in the opening procession (more information to come)

Andre Dansberry (Program Coordinator)
Andre works with everyone "on program" during the evening worship services.  He makes sure ministries are in place so the service transitions are seamless.

Evg. Sheila and her team sets the atmosphere through praise and worship!  Like  many already listed….she's been with EQS since 2007!

Elder Vickie Williams (Administrator)
Elder Vickie has been coming to EQS since 2007, but this is her first year on staff.  She is assisting with a variety of administrative functions.

In addition to the team of officers listed above, there are room captains, ushers, greeters, runners, set-up tear down crews and many more!  If you would like to volunteer, please contact us! 

We can't wait to meet and greet you in St. Louis!  September 9-12, 2010!

Equipping the Saints 2010 Pre-Registration Challenge

November 18, 2009 by Lakita  
Filed under Articles, News and Updates

 

Greetings Kingdom Ambassadors!

It's official!  Equipping the Saints 2010 registration is now open!  We will be returning to the Doubletree St. Louis Hotel at Westport on September 9-12, 2010.  Our theme for 2010 is Maranatha, which means, Come Lord Jesus!

 

The early apostles comforted each other with "Maranatha" as a greeting and a prayer.  They passionately cried out for the Lord's return.  What has happened to our generation?  Many have become idle and lulled to sleep by the comforts of this world.  Many have failed to heed the warning to remain sober and vigilant.

I recently polled a group and many admitted they are not ready for Christ to return.  This is troubling because He is not waiting on us.  The hour of His return has already been set and when it is time He is coming…our responsibility is to be ready!  There should be nothing that would keep us from the fellowship with our Creator that awaits us.  Our real treasure is in heavenly places!

Are you ready for His return?  Are you excited about it?  Will you cry out "Maranatha!"?

The 2010 conference will start on the eve of Rosh Hoshanah.  It is interesting to note that many Messianic Jews believe that the sound of the shofar on Rosh Hashanah is a symbol of the rapture of the followers of the Messiah.

I'll continue to share more about EQS 2010 as the time draws near.  Please note the EQS Pre-registration challenge and other pertinent information below.

 

We will have dozens of breakout sessions on a variety of topics including but not limited to: ballet / modern, African dance, mime, Davidic dance, youth classes, evangelism, administration, finances, business, prophetic, prayer & intercession, starting a dance ministry, spiritual warfare and much more.

Should the Lord delay His coming, I hope you'll meet me in St. Louis!

Until then, MARANATHA!
Lakita

"Pre-Registration" challenge

 

 

Early registration helps with the operational planning and financial expenses that are needed before the conference.  Registering early also benefits you as it costs significantly less.  To encourage early registration, we are issuing the pre-registration challenge. 

The task is simple, 100 pre-registrants by December 31, 2009.  If this mission is accomplished, all pre-registrants will be awarded with an EQS 2010 T-shirt at the conference.

So register today, and tell your friends to register early as well!  I believe we can do it!
