The Next Ministries Network Team is dedicated to developing strong and healthy ministries and communities.
Next Ministries is committed to strengthening the church. We know that our strength comes from our unity and support of one another. We are currently having monthly gatherings online to learn, share, and discuss how to use technology to enhance our ministries to reach people for Christ and help them grow in their faith. This is an opportunity to connect with people at a variety of levels and experiences who are implementing digital ministry.
