As in the past, our Spring Learning Event will introduce your parish to exceptional speakers and some of the latest thinking around trends and ideas. This year we are pleased to be partnering with the ELCA (Evangelical Lutheran Church in America) and their office of Global Missions to host a "Glocal Mission Gathering".
God's work in mission always propels us to encounter the neighbor, particularly in the stranger. This gathering will help equip us for God's work in today's global and local realities and their "glocal" intersections, with keynotes by the Rev. Sunitha Mortha, Director, ELCA Mission Formation and Relationships, and the Rev. David Copley, Mission Personnel Director, Episcopal Church Center.
What is mission? Who is the neighbor? Let's answer these questions together for our migrating and immigrating world. Come, join some of the most relevant mission conversations around the realities of the world we live in today.
