The Order of Deacons will gather with Bishop Dyck on April 29 at the Michael Barlow Center.  The meal is provided through St. Leonard’s Ministries' meal program, which provides culinary training to former offenders and allows them the opportunity to prepare and serve a meal.  We are thankful to be able to support this program again.  Click here to learn more about St. Leonard’s Ministries.  

Our primary discussion topic will be to process the implications of the Special Session of General Conference on our order and ministries.  We will also share updates about what’s happening around the connection.  No RSVP is necessary – please come and be in fellowship!  Questions should be directed to Adrienne Stricker via email at adrienne.stricker@gmail.com.
