Breakout Options

IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT KIDSTUF: In order to focus on better equipping families to learn together at home, KidStuf no longer takes place every Sunday. KidStuf will be held the first Sunday of every month and as a result, the show is no longer part of the Sundays @ North Point conference. A KidStuf breakout will be available as part of Sundays @ North Point. This breakout will provide an opportunity to meet the KidStuf staff and learn about the strategy and mission of the KidStuf environment.

PLEASE NOTE: Each person attending must select one department from the list below to join for discussions on Monday morning.

Preschool- Ready to talk nuts and bolts about preschool ministry? Come take a tour of our facility for birth to four-years-old and walk through all the different aspects of a Sunday morning - curriculum, volunteers, check-in, security, the guest enrollment process, and anything else you want to see! This informal breakout is a great opportunity to have discussion with a Waumba Land staff member about all the systems that make a Sunday morning run smoothly.

Children- Wanna go behind the scenes and see what UpStreet for K-5th grade looks like? Then join the UpStreet team as we take you on a tour of our children's hallways to see what our kids experience on a Sunday morning. UpStreet is where kids connect in small groups and participate in worship. We'll show you what it takes to make Sunday work - from curriculum, to our security/ check in process, to volunteers and everything else in between. We look forward to seeing you down on UpStreet.

KidStuf- Kids and parents learning together in the same room??? Yes, it can be done!!! Join us as we discuss the basics behind creating an engaging production that provides a shared experience for FAMILIES.

Middle School & High School- Student ministry at North Point is more than just zany, crazy fun! There are simple systems in place to make sure that students find in our environments what they can't find in a teacher, coach, or even parent -- an adult who loves them and is deeply involved in their life through their small group. We'll explain the strategy behind high-energy production, plugging students into opportunities of service, and giving ministry away from staff to volunteers as we attempt to lead students into a growing relationship with Christ.

Small Groups- At North Point, success is determined by how effectively we move people into small groups, because we think this is where sustained life change takes place. In this break out we'll share the guiding principles behind our Group Life ministry and tell you how we assimilate, resource and support our primary adult small group environments.

Church Administration- This breakout session is designed for senior pastors, executive pastors, and administrators. It is a behind-the-scenes look at the principles andpractices that we utilize to serve the ministries at North Point, BrownsBridge, and Buckhead Church.

Service Programming- Go behind the scenes to see how our services are planned and executed. Our service programming staff will articulate the philosophy and values which drive the creative process, share our best practices, and pass along strategies we think can be applied in a church no matter how large or small. This breakout also includes time for smaller group interaction with leaders from our programming, music, production and host teams to address issues in your particular areas of responsibility.

Multiple Campus Strategy-The Multi Site breakout is designed to illustrate the strategy and mission of North Point's multi campus philosophy. The breakout also describes the role of strategic partnerships in our overall mission of Leading People into a Growing Relationship with Jesus Christ, as well as the process we employ when developing and launching a new partner church.

Singles- In 1970 there were 62 million people in the United States that were unmarried, roughly 28% of the population. In 2000 there were 102 million unmarried people in the United States, roughly 46% of the population. Does this growth surprise you? Encourage you? Scare you? Like it or not, aware of it or not, single adults are becoming more prevalent in our communities. Be challenged to embrace this passionate group of people who are eager to be part of a movement toward change.
