The Christian Business Owners Fellowship (CBOF) Ministry will hold a dinner on Thursday evening, January 21, from 6:15 to 8:30 pm at the DoubleTree Hotel in Independence featuring Dr. Gerald S. Mills as the keynote speaker.  Dr. Mills, a resident of Oberlin, graduated from The Ohio State University at age 20.  He holds a Bachelors, Masters and Doctorate from Princeton Theological Seminary.  His pastorates include: Sr. Pastor of the 2800+ member Tower Hill Presbyterian Church in Red Bank, NJ and organizing Providence Presbyterian Church on Hilton Head Island, SC.  Dr. Mills taught in Princeton Seminary's Continuing Education Program for 10 years.  He is a Jew who believes in Jesus. 

We are also pleased to announce that on September 9, 2010, CBOF will host John Beckett as its speaker.  John recently authored Mastering Monday: A guide to Integrating Faith and Work.  This is the successor book to his Loving Monday: Succeeding in Business Without Selling Your Soul. In Mastering Monday, John shows the dynamic presence of God at work in our work by sharing real-life examples from his own 40-year success story, as well as lessons demonstrated by seven biblical characters who serve as role models for dealing with workplace issues. John graduated from MIT in 1960, and assumed the role of President at Beckett Corporation after the sudden and untimely death of his father, who founded the company in 1937. John's oldest son took over as President and CEO in 2003, but John remains active in the company as its Chairman.

Please come and fellowship with us and feel free to bring a guest (spouse or other business owners).  If you have any questions, please call or email Randy Vesco at 440-333-1900 or rvesco@vescoconsulting.com.
