Reframing Hope

Our BE 4.0 presenter will be the Reverend Carol Howard Merritt, pastor at Western Presbyterian Church in Washington D.C. and author of Tribal Church: Ministering to the Missing Generation and the forthcoming Reframing Hope: Vital Ministry in a New Generation. Carol is one of the hosts of the God Complex Radio podcast and blogs at TribalChurch.org

This event will provide 20 Contact Hours (2 CEUs), as well as plentiful time for rest, recreation  and “galship.” You will receive a copy of Carol’s book in advance as part of your registration fee.

BE 4.0 will take place on Carnival Cruise Line's ship, Carnival Inspiration, departing Tampa, Florida on Saturday, February 26, 2011, with stops at Grand Cayman and Cozumel and two full days at sea. We return to Tampa early on Thursday, March 3. Cost including cruise and program for a shared cabin will be $545 for an inside stateroom or $600 for oceanview. 


The registration fee of $100 will be due on September 25, a payment of $200 will be due on October 21, and the balance will be due on December 15, 2010. Particulars are in the brochure, available by emailing Martha Hoverson.

We require a minimum of 15 participants and currently have space for 24 at these rates. We cannot guarantee the prices will remain the same for additional staterooms, so be sure to book early!
