Apostolic entrepreneurs will gather in St. Louis on October 27-28 for the annual LifeSprings Summit, an event that connects aspiring business leaders with the support and resources needed to achieve their dreams while blessing God’s kingdom.
The event will be held at the Crowne Plaza Hotel. Subjects that will be discussed include updates on LifeSprings ventures, new opportunities, and any other business-related topics attendees may submit. Visit LifeSpringsVentures.com/events to register.
“If you have a God-given dream of building your own business but need help, the LifeSprings Summit is for you,” said LifeSprings founder Steve Drury. “It is your opportunity to meet business leaders and investors who are eager to share their expertise, experience, and resources to help you build the company God has called you to lead.”
Drury and Albert Skaggs founded LifeSprings in 2009 for the purpose of helping Apostolic entrepreneurs secure the funding and expertise needed to turn creative ideas into profitable businesses. In return for assistance from LifeSprings consultants and investors, businesses pledge to donate stock or up to fifty percent of profits (after paying back investment capital) to the United Pentecostal Foundation to fund areas of ministry chosen by the entrepreneur, their board, and their investors. Funds generated by LifeSprings businesses are then used to create gifts, endowments, and scholarships for missions, education, and humanitarian efforts.
LifeSprings members include business professionals, successful entrepreneurs, and Kingdom-minded investors. Through LifeSprings, members act as consultants to help aspiring entrepreneurs create business, marketing, and franchise plans, apply for patents, locate funding, and acquire existing businesses. Additionally, they may choose to invest their personal capital.
To date, LifeSprings members have provided support for twenty-one business ventures.
