Love the Lord your God

Summer 2015 cannot come soon enough! The Planning Team is hard at work preparing to welcome everyone to our Annual Gathering in July. We are excited to once again offer a balanced combination of traditional features and innova-tive changes designed to inspire and revitalize all who attend.The conference theme is “Fully Invested,” from Deuteronomy 6:4–9, “…love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.” During our time together, we will consider ways to be faithful as we encourage our churches to be fully invested in the work of the Kingdom, looking specifically at our ministry priorities: Conference Care, Church Development, and Church Multiplication.We are excited to have four different featured speakers to bring us lectures, work-shops and sermons that will challenge, encourage and energize us for life and ministry. Neil Hudson, Dr. Gordon Hugenberger, Dr. Carol Kaminski and Ryan Howell will all be with us in Rochester, NY. (See below)

In addition there will be opportunities to enjoy the sights and sounds of Rochester. The hotel is adjacent to the convention center and is an easy walk to downtown. It offers the perfect blend of location, style and amenities. A special event Dinner Cruise on the Genesee River is planned for free time on Tuesday evening.
