Last December, a group of business owners and marketplace professionals got together to discuss the realities of business in Bulgaria. In addition to the inherent challenges and opportunities, we explored what God might be doing to use the marketplace to make His character known and to grow the church in Bulgaria and beyond.

As a result there is a new commitment among Christian marketplace professionals to collaborate together in order to see God’s Kingdom expanding and to make this journey together in order to be more effective.

The gathering ended with agreement to partner in major business expansion and mutually learn, train and support each other. An important first step is INTERSECT 2010.

INTERSECT 2010 will bring together business professionals from around the globe to discuss how God wants to use the marketplace to make Himself known and grow His Kingdom in Bulgaria and beyond. We will focus especially on the needs of the Bulgarian small business owner who is seeking to become more effective in both business and marketplace ministry.

Workshops include topics such as:

• How to write and effective business and ministry plan
• Financial planning for the small business
• Marketing for the small business
• Identifying your market and developing a marketing strategy
• Funding a start-up or growing company
• Developing employees for company success and individual growth
• Profit vs. Kingdom goals: can they coexist?

Be praying for Intersect 2010:

1. For safe travel and that the volcanic ash cloud will not interfere.
2. That God will draw those He desires to mobilize into His harvest field and speak powerfully to them.
3. For all who are speaking during the conference and that the Lord will lead and bless.
4. That the Lord will bless Tom as he preaches on Sunday.
5. That the Lord will go before the groups making side trips to Skopje and Vidin, open doors and give clear direction for future ministry in those new locations.
