Greetings from Crescent To Coast Missional District, what a beautiful Spring we are having.

We are busy, however, working on our Fall Gathering, which will be September 19, 2026, in Shelton, Washington. More information to come in our save-the-date flyer, out soon.

We have welcomed Karen Yaeger as our new appointed Social Action person. She will be officially installed in the position at the Fall Gathering. Karen is a member of our White Salmon Unit.

We are excited to have a new unit in Crest To Coast after many years, started by Kay Richardson, the new President at Shelton UMC in Shelton, Washington. Kay recently joined our District board, not having her own unit. She then decided to start her own, and she did. We will celebrate this new unit at our Fall Gathering in Shelton. They will be hosting our event and jumping right into things with both feet. We are so pleased with the enthusiasm they bring and hope this is just a start to new units added to our District.

We are working to implement the RPMs program in our units and to answer questions, etc. Joan Hackett has written an article in the Sharing Line addressing this new program, which replaces the Mission Today program, which is also on our PNW United Women in Faith Conference website.

We continue to set up Soul Retreats as requested, having had four successful ones last year.

Some of our members are getting ready for Assembly, and we are already looking forward to Mission u at Lazy F in July. This is a busy and exciting time for Crest To Coast.

Bev Thomas,
Crest to Coast District President
