Presbyfest 2012

“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing
of your minds so that you may discern what is the will of God
– what is good and acceptable and perfect.” Romans 12:2

You’ve been hearing about it.
You’ve seen the “Save the Date” reminders.
But what is Presbyfest all about?

It’s about Connection. Fellowship. Nurture. Mission. Information. Worship.
It’s about Presbyterians with a passion for ministry and relationships coming together to share and rejoice.

It’s about being the church.

Presbyfest 2012 will take place on Saturday, January 28 from 9am – 4pm  at Mercer Island Presbyterian Church and will feature:
keynote speaker Rev. Bruce Reyes-Chow, former PCUSA moderator , with workshops led by Julia Thorne (immigration ministries), Rev. Jeff Keuss (theology and culture), Rev. Dean Strong (NFoG Best Practices) and many more.

We’ll talk and listen to one another about discernment and transformation, mission and renewal.

We’ll have discussions on Southeast Asia mission, healthy church growth initiatives, reformed worship and multicultural ministries. Also offered will be Clerk of Session training, annual report assistance, and best finance practices for churches. Throughout the day, a mission fair – highlighting mission partners of many of our churches – will be on display.

At the end of our day together, we will gather to worship and celebrate the Lord’s Supper.

This event depends on your participation for its success. Take time from your busy schedules and spend some time with sisters and brothers in the Seattle Presbytery.  Come. And be the church.
