Shoreline Encounter weekends will offer a unique focus on Discipleship, with  training geared toward starting new small groups—not just launching new churches

It’s a unique opportunity to shape the future of our region through intentional disciple‑making.

MISSION IGNITER COACH CERTIFICATION November 9-10, 2026

 
Research affirms that coaching is essential to equipping leaders, whether it’s in a multiplication community context or investing in a leader walking through their unique ministry calling. Thriving movements are fueled by leaders who are supported, sharpened, and strategically guided. Mission Igniter’s Coach Certification training is designed to equip leaders to provide contextualized coaching. Participants will gain a clear coaching philosophy, practical tools, and proven practices to effectively guide leaders in their unique ministry settings.
 
One recent participant shared,  “Mission Igniter’s coaching certification was the most practical training I have ever received. The five-step guide in “The Coach Model” clearly articulates the coaching process and provides a tool that keeps sessions focused and meaningful.
 
If you’re ready to strengthen leaders, multiply impact, and foster sustainable growth, this training is for you.
The in-person training will be held at:
Central Michigan FMC,
6012 S. Mission Rd.,
Mt. Pleasant, MI 48858.
 
No cost for pastors/leaders from the Shoreline Conference; General Admission is $500 per leader.
 
Training times are:  Monday-9 am-5 pm; Tuesday-9 am-1 pm
 
For those needing overnight lodging, a link to receive a discounted hotel price will be sent to registrants.
