The theme for this year’s Spring Meeting of the Pennsylvania SoutheastConference is “Being Church—Choosing Life.” It will begin on Friday, June 6 at 10:00 am (Registration begins at 9:00 am) and conclude on Saturday, June 7 at 5:00 pm. The location will again be the Lancaster Host Resort, 2300 Lincoln Highway East,

Three special guests will lead this spring's meeting: Steve Sterner, Mark Burrows and Claire Burkat. The Rev.

In addition to exciting music and inspiring worship, 10 workshops will be offered to show “signs of life” in the church—both locally and around the world. Whether you are a delegate, church member, visitor or friend, this will be a wonderful opportunity to share in the life of our wider church family. More information will be forthcoming, but you may take advantage of early-bird discounts by registering now either online or by mail.
Twice each year, in June and November, delegates from approximately 180 congregations
gather to plan and lead the ministry of our Conference. At these Spring
and Fall Meetings, we conduct the business of the Conference, learn
new ways to strengthen one another's ministry, and celebrate our common
life together through worship and fellowship. Come be a part of your
church family! |
