The 2023 President's Conference is underway with Day 1 of the conference bringing together ministry agents from across the country to Redcliffe Uniting Church, north of Brisbane, to share, learn, reflect and break bread together! Today's program began with worship led by President Rev Sharon Hollis, fascinating input from Anglican priest and writer Rev Canon Dr Rachel Mann and a great panel discussion on the gift and challenges of intercultural ministry. Over the next three days, participants gathering will be invited to think deeply on the theme 'Ministry in precarious times'. Keynote speaker Rev Dr Cathie Lambert will reflect on how we might lean on prayer and one another through uncertain times, drawing on the wisdom of the beguine mystics. Later in the week, as the program opens to the wider Church, Rev Dr Sally Douglas will lead sessions on healthy communities of faith, alongside preaching and an interview with Aboriginal Christian leader Brooke Prentis. We'll provide regular updates and snaps of the action daily on the Assembly Facebook page. |
