PIE Day 2022
Moderator Richard Bott invites you to join in the celebration of PIE Day on March 14!
PIE Day is a day to think about all the people the letters 2S and LGBTQIA+ represent, and how we respond to the call to be "Public, Intentional, and Explicit" in our affirmation. You can find worship resources and more information about the day here.
Hopeful Economics UnConference
Hopeful economics is a way of looking at the assets and abundance of the world and making that work for everyone. An UnConference occurs when topics and discussions are informed by the people who show up! During this two-day unConference we will tackle the following together: - How to see the abundance and hope
- Active listening and translating what we are hearing and seeing
- How to build collaboration through our commonalities
- Leaning into the problem
- Connecting with others across North America and in your neighborhood
Pricing: $20 per person. We are so committed to new connections being formed that we guarantee your ticket price and will refund it if you do not connect with someone new! Find out more, and register.

Call for nominations! The Board of Vocation, its committees, and commissions seek both ministers and lay people to be a part of the important work of developing and sustaining excellence in professional ministry.
