Our next update will include the workshop descriptions that will take place on Friday morning with our stellar group of presenters: Bishop Ian Douglas (Bishop of CT), Sharon Pearson (Church Publishing Editor), Julie Lytle (Executive Director, Province 1) and Chris Hingley (Ambassador for Petra Schools/Zimbabwe) who are preparing a variety of ways to engage with “mission” — provoking our thoughts and conversation about new directions while also embracing our rich tradition and resources. There will be materials and new ideas to take back to the home front as well as innovative notions to ponder and “try on for size”.

 

The Rev. Carole Wageman
