Worship
Our worship will reflect the larger theme of the event, exploring how
we engage with God during the various seasons of our souls. How do we engage
with God as we grieve? Or celebrate? Or seek healing? Or commit our lives
to serve Christ's church?
The content of our worship will once again abe available for you to take
home and use as you see fit. While we are gathered, though, you will have
the opportunity to truly worship in services designed to engage your body,
mind, and spirit.
Display Area
Something in which you are involved that your colleagues should know about?
Space will be made available again this year in which to display your reasonable
array of resources.
Cokesbury
As always, Cokesbury will be on site with an array of ministry tools
on which to spend what’s left of your professional expense money.
They love this event!
