Mission:  The Business Networking Group is designed to bring together Christian business owners and professionals for the purpose of networking and improving business strategies and skills with a biblical perspective.

Involvement:  A member of the Business Networking Group can be involved in two ways on the local level and/or the national level.

• Local Level:  The local level involves participation in the monthly meetings at Living Word Christian Center.  These meetings take place on the first Wednesday of the month (September – May) from 9:00 am to 11:30 am, and the meetings are comprised of fellowship, relational networking, developing business strategies for success, and small group discussion.  Participation at the local level provides you with the following:

  • Membership binder – allows you to keep all handouts

  • Media card – allows you to purchase CDs of the meetings

  • Member directory – a listing of all members and their businesses

  • Website Access – access to many business resources as well as an online member directory at www.bng.lwcc.org

  • Website Advertising – your business will be listed on the BNG website

• National Level:  The national level gives you access to the ProVision Network and website www.provisionnetwork.org, which is an ever growing national directory of Christian businesses.  Their website also gives you access to business resources such as teleconferences, online video and audio lessons, and an abundance of articles relating to business.

Registration:  The registration process is dependent on what type of involvement you desire. 

• Local Level:  Registration can take place at the monthly meetings.  All that is involved is filling out the application and payment of your dues.  The membership dues are $15.00 per month and may be paid for the full year (September – May) which is $135.00 or you may pay for half a year at a time.  To download an application: Click here for a Microsoft Word Application.  Click here for an Adobe Acrobat .pdf Application.
