Milestones '23

Each milestone in a child's life can be a beautiful source of joy. Yet at the same time, these changes can leave you feeling overwhelmed and unprepared. At our Milestones '23 Conference, we will highlight core, biblical parenting foundations to help you navigate each milestone in your child's life, from birth to graduation. You'll never be ready, but you can be prepared!

We will host our Milestones Conference for our Family of Churches at our Downtown Church on May 6, 2023 from 9:00am-1:00pm. Childcare will be provided throughout the event.

For more information, email here.

Milestones’ vision is to train parents to be the most confident, well-equipped, joy-filled parents they can possibly be. Every year we host a conference weekend with the goal of encouraging and engaging parents with Jesus’ transformative power in our lives.

Milestones Weekend 2022 | Family of Churches

  • Midtown Fellowship: Downtown (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

In a world full of distractions, busyness and parenting hiccups, it is so easy to lose our focus. It is so easy to forget the goal in our parenting. 

  • Sometimes the target feels like doing everything possible to help our kids succeed.

  • Sometimes the target feels like striving to give our kids every possible opportunity.

  • Sometimes the target feels like mere survival!

But Jesus is clear that everything He does and teaches is about spreading His joy. He invites us into His joy. He fills us with His joy. He empowers us to share His joy with others!

So at this year’s Milestones conference we will work together to put our target precisely where Jesus puts His target; on His JOY. With big picture teaching and practical nuts-and-bolts training, we will help you to aim for His joy and train your children to do the same.

We will host our Milestones Weekend for our Family of Churches at our Downtown Church on May 6-7, 2022. Friday night will be a Parent’s Night Out (available optionally for conference attendees only) and Saturday will be the Milestones Conference day from 9:00am-2:00pm. Childcare will be provided throughout the event.

UPDATE, 4/25: CHILDCARE IS FULL and is no longer available as an option during registration. Parents are encouraged to attend, but will need to arrange their own childcare for the conference day.

Milestones Weekend 2020

FamilyMilestoneWEB-01.jpg

Bad news: Parenting is hard.

We rarely feel ready for the non-stop demands, obstacles and challenges that children bring. And as soon as we begin to feel like we’ve figured it out, the target changes and we often feel lost again.

Good news: We’re here to help.

Milestones is our family discipleship program to help you and your children be prepared for the natural stages of childhood development. It’s built on noticing and celebrating the significant points of transition that children go through on their journey to adulthood.

We will host our Milestones Weekend for our Family of Churches on May 1-3. Milestones Weekend is a weekend devoted to training and encouraging all of our parents, grandparents, and anyone interested in helping raise disciples in the next generation.

Family Worship Night

Join us on Sunday, November 4 from 5:00pm-6:00pm and invite your friends to our first ever city-wide Family Worship Night. Our Kids and Families ministry works by partnering with parents to raise kids who love Jesus. One way we do that is by hosting events that help support family discipleship and keep our families connected with one another. At our Family Worship Night we’ll sing some of our favorite Kidtown songs, pray, and read scripture together.

This event will be hosted in the Kidtown area of our Downtown Church located at 1800 Blanding Street.

If you have any other questions, feel free to email us here.
