Living Love in Action
“Dear children, let’s not merely say that we love each other; let us show the truth by our actions” – 1 John 3:18
District Conference for the Pacific Northwest District Church of the Brethren is approaching, and we hope you’ll join us!
District Conference is an opportunity for District members to come together to reflect on the past year of District life as well as discern together the future for our collection of congregations. Additionally, there will be programs and activities to foster spiritual exploration and nurture our community connections.
The theme for this year’s conference will be “Living Love in Action,” drawn from 1 John 3:18, which reads “Dear children, let’s not merely say that we love each other; let us show the truth by our actions” (NLT).
How can we, as a District, live into this call to live our love in action?
How can we enliven this spirit of active love in our congregations and as individuals?
Conference setting
This year’s conference will be a hybrid conference, with District members gathering both online and in-person. The in-person conference will be held at Camp Koinonia in Cle Elum, Washington (https://campkoinonia.org/). Camp Koinonia, one of the Pacific Northwest District’s camps, is nestled in beautiful wooded nature, providing an enriching environment for our spiritual, community, and church-business discussions and activities.
Pre-conference session
Beginning the afternoon of Thursday, October 12th, we will have a pre-conference session open to pastors, licensed and ordained ministers, and ministry leaders. This session will focus on how we can cultivate and nurture love-in-action communities through ministerial leadership.
