The day includes worship, two sessions of workshops, a resource fair, a celebration of the Gertrude Apel Pioneering Spirit Awardees, and an opportunity to weave together what we’ve learned. Workshop themes include worship, church management, tending the spirit, and social justice, including racial reconciliation, environment, homelessness, and human trafficking awareness.
Last year, over 200 people from 15 faith traditions, and at least 57 congregations gathered for this transformative day of learning, sharing, and fellowship. We hope you and your community can be a part of it!
