2020 Conference Session: Connecting the Dots: Your Mission and Your Story

Forward Movement’s mission is to inspire disciples and empower evangelists. Let’s strategize about the best ways to tell the story of your organization by reconnecting with your mission. Miriam will share research on how communication works in the brain and how we can use that information to tell the story our constituents need to hear.

Presented by: Miriam McKenney finds extreme joy parenting her three girls: Nia, 24; Kaia, 19; and Jaiya, 16. She and her husband, David, met at the Union of Black Episcopalians conference in 1981. Miriam serves as Development Director at Forward Movement and Youth Minister at Calvary Episcopal Church in Cincinnati. She was a children’s librarian and school media specialist for 20 years before joining Forward Movement’s staff. She loves to evangelize about her love of outdoor fitness, even in extreme temperatures — as there is no bad weather, just incorrect clothing choices.
