OVERVIEW

The EMC National Office wants to provide an opportunity for the Conference Staff to connect with the Pastors and Key Leaders from regions seven and eight; to engage in meaningful discussion about how to work together to advance the work of Christ.

We want to carve out time for pastors and their spouses to connect informally, be encouraged in their ministry, and be refreshed in the Spirit. In addition, the EMC staff wants to provide the time to hear the concerns and perspectives of those from Regions seven and eight in regard to their church, their regions, and the Conference.

The EMC wants to foster an atmosphere where a vision can emerge that will help guide us in our work as individual churches, as a region, and as a conference.
