Church on the Rock International in Dallas, TX is hosting it’s 2007 leadership Conference
The conference is designed to inspire ministries from all around the nation and globe with a variety of speakers and breakout sessions to encourage, instruct and improve local church services to their respective communities. Speakers include:
Dr. Lawrence Kennedy, Bishop TD Jakes, Pastor Matthew Barnett, Dr. Michael Maiden – and many more including yours truly, Richard R. Ramos.
Given the new opportunities for faith-based organizations to compete for Federal funding since 2001, there has been increased interest in public funding and we have been asked to give a session regarding the many aspects to understanding, qualifying and applying for grants to supplement church ministries with social services. We are honored and excited to present to such a vast array of church leaders!

The Office of Juvenile Justice Delinquency Prevention has asked the Latino Coalition for Faith & Community Initiatives, and other national Latino serving nonprofits, to partner with them and HNBA in a Mentoring Initiative. The objective is to connect HNBA lawyers from their respective communities with local nonprofits serving Latino at-risk youth & families. This is a great win-win opportunity for nonprofits and lawyers to connect on the grassroots level and hopefully provide mutual inspiration and community service. Who knows how many Latino youth might be inspired to pursue a legal career as lawyers begin to get close to our young men and women? As I see it, only good can come out of such an initiative! If you are interested in participating in this initiative, or know of a nonprofit that would be interested to join ouir effort, please contact our offices at (661) 326-8845 – or email me at: rramos@latinocoalition.org
When: Thursday, October 4, 2007
