30 Jul National Conference 2007

I am pleased to announce that the 2007 National Conference will be held May 31 – June 3 (Thursday through Sunday) at the Sawmill Creek Resort, in Huron, Ohio, on the shore of Lake Erie. The resort is about 45 minutes to an hour west of Cleveland. The speaker for Thursday and Friday evenings will be Pastor Brad Powell from Northridge Church. Registration information will be coming later, but I wanted you to get the dates on your calendar. This conference will be a great re-focusing time for our churches.

Also at this National Conference, each church will be able to send voting lay delegates to represent their congregation to the highest governing body of the US National Conference. Plus, all conference ministers who are actively pastoring a United Brethren church or serving in an appointed or elected position are also voting members of the National Conference.

You will receive further information regarding the registration for the National Conference in a few months. But just wanted to give everyone a “heads up” on the dates. Each church will be responsible for the expenses of its delegates (lay and pastors), so you will want to include this item in your 2007 Budget.
