Joellen Eades of Dalton, OH, Prepares for CU Lead Conference

2018 Jan 9

Cedarville University student Joellen Eades of Dalton, OH, is busy preparing for the upcoming CU Lead Conference. This annual conference, entitled "Be Ready - Be Available," will be held January 19-20 in the Dixon Ministry Center. The conference will equip high school and college students to become better leaders.

A team of four banded together to plan and prepare for the conference. Eades was joined by Robert Krupnek, Peter Shields, and Emily DeCeglie.

"In life we sometimes wait for others to give us opportunities. Our goal is that we seek to be ready for leadership opportunities," said Brian Burns, director of campus experience at Cedarville. "If you are not ready, then you cannot be available. It is important to remember that leadership is not a position."

The conference includes main sessions for all attendees, along with breakout sessions for three separate tracks: high schools students, Cedarville students desiring to serve in a campus leadership role and Cedarville students currently serving as campus leaders. It also includes a free concert by Shai Linne, recording artist and church planter.
