about

Equip to Engage

Equip to Engage is called to serve children’s leaders through quality, affordable, local leadership development. This is accomplished with retreats, weekend events and specialized programs.
What makes Equip to Engage unique? We concentrate on equipping, encouraging and connecting local children’s leaders and local churches. We understand many children’s leaders are lay people and are unable to attend national conferences. Equip to Engage brings resources and encouragement to the local church or geographical area.
Equip to Engage collaborates with local and district leaders as it seeks to make gatherings and resources as cost effective as possible for children’s leaders.
