| Three Fold Purpose Statement |
 |
| NETWORKING |
| The chamber regularly holds networking
functions in the Downtown Orlando area for the opportunity to
network, promote, and relationship build within the Christian
community. Its networking luncheons are one of the most well
attended functions in Orlando, with an average of 100+ attendees
at each event. |
 |
| PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT |
The chamber provides access to
the best experts in the areas of motivational training, sales
training, marketing, and personal growth—always
from a Christ-centered perspective. Former speakers include;
Mr. Kevin McCarthy, President of On-Purpose Partners, Dr. Sandy
Shugart, President of Valencia Community College, Mr.
Larry Kreider, President of The Gathering of Men, Congressman
Dave Weldon, Ms. Deborah Vizzi, former trainer of
the Zig Ziglar organization, and Mr. Simon Bailey, former
Disney executive and Founder of The Imagination Institute. These
individuals represent just a few of our outstanding special guests.
In addition, the chamber hosts its annual “The Institute
for Professional Development.” The Institute consists
of a half-day workshop with an expert in a particular field—always
from a Christ-centered perspective. |
 |
| CIVIC ACTIVISM |
The chamber holds that Christians
have a responsibility of stewardship over our families, cities,
states and nation. We are to govern ourselves according to the
laws and precepts as outlined in the Scriptures. However, if
a person is disconnected from their community, their government,
and elected leaders, this stewardship is neglected to the detriment
of society. It is the position of the chamber that disconnected
citizens must re-connect to their communities, and stay informed
on important issues.
Accordingly, the chamber coordinates the annual National
Day of Prayer Gathering at Lake Eola which is always
observed the first Thursday in May; and the annual “Leaders
Luncheon” held in October. |
