Announcing: THE ASI HOUR
Enjoy the Blessing of ASI All Year Long!
Each year at the ASI Convention, we have the opportunity to be inspired and equipped in seminars and network with others who share similar interests. Now this blessing can be available each month throughout the year by becoming part of “The ASI Hour”.
Recognizing that we need to be increasingly intentional about Sharing Christ in the Marketplace all throughout the year, “The ASI Hour” will provide on-going tools, training and testimonies that will encourage and strengthen your witness and experience. This monthly one-hour interactive session will follow a different track each time. In addition to informative and inspiring presentations, there will be opportunities for Q&A, as well as follow-up networking opportunities (coming soon) that will allow individual sharing and collaboration to take place all-year long!
Here are some of the exciting topics that will start “The ASI Hour” once a month on Thursday at 8PM EST (5PM PST):

By 1975, McNeilus Companies had developed a technology in manufacturing that they felt surpassed existing technology. MTM became the largest manufacturer of concrete mixers and refuse packers in the world. After selling the manufacturing company to Oshkosh Truck Corporation, retirement was not in store for Garwin. He has been able to continue and expand on the development of orphanages and schools in needy areas throughout the world.

In his travels abroad, Garwin recognized a need for church buildings that could be constructed efficiently almost anywhere in the world. The development and production of the One-Day Church project has been Garwin’s most far reaching initiative for the church. What started as an answer to a need for church buildings that could be built quickly anywhere in the world has expanded to meet other building needs including schools, hospitals, storage facilities and green houses.
