SUMMARY:Worship Workshops: “small bites\, BIG FLAVOR”
DESCRIPTION:As a layperson\, do you find yourself responsible for leading worship? Do you need help with worship resources? Would you like to learn skills to enhance worship leadership in your small church? If so\, these worship workshops are for you! \nThe Pacific Northwest (PNW) Conference has invited Dr. Marcia McFee to lead workshops over the next several months to empower laity to become more effective in worship planning and leading. Bitesize mindset and skillset lessons will be taught\, which can add flavor to your worship. Resources for each liturgical season will also be shared. \n\nJanuary 10-12\, 2025 – Lent / Holy Week / Easter – held in (and live-streamed from) First UMC\, Olympia\, WA\nMay 2-4\, 2025 – Ordinary Time – held in (and live-streamed from) Wesley UMC\, Yakima\, WA\n\nWhile these workshops are offered with laypersons in mind\, pastors of small churches are especially invited to attend with their laity. Pastors of larger churches are welcome but strongly encouraged to see this event as an opportunity to equip and train laity as partners in worship design. \nClick here to review the schedule for these workshops. \nParticipants from the Alaska\, Oregon-Idaho\, and PNW Conferences will have free access to all three workshops\, both in person and online. For more information and to register\, please use the following link based on the conference your local church is in. \n\nAlaska Conference Registration\nOregon-Idaho Conference Registration\nPacific Northwest Conference Registration\n\nFor those attending in person\, a nominal fee is required to cover the costs of meals and other host church expenses. A separate (simple) registration (for each event) is required so we can prepare for your needs. Registration for in-person hospitality at the August event is available here. Others will become available closer to the workshop dates. \nScholarships are available for Lay-Led Congregations and churches served by a CLM in the PNW Conference to cover this expense and support travel and housing during each workshop. Please contact your District Superintendent (PNW) for scholarship support. \nIf you have questions\, please contact Sheila Miranda at smiranda@pnwumc.org

SUMMARY:Crossing Over Into Abundant Life - Crest to Coast Missional District Training
DESCRIPTION:Scripture: I came that they may have life\, and have it abundantly.\nKeynote Speaker: Rev. Shalom Agtarap “Talent Scouts and Treasure Hunters”\nClick Here to Register Today!\nWorkshops (please choose 2 workshops: 1 for AM & 1 for PM) \nSmall Church Vitality \nIn the church we often get distracted by programs\, finances\, and politics\, and forget that everyone needs to experience God’s love. We’ll talk about ways to refocus our ministries on what matters most to abundant life: being loved by God and telling others about it. \nEarthquake Preparedness \nAre you ready for the big one? How can you prepare? The Cascadia earthquake and tsunami will be the largest natural disaster in history to hit the United States. The FEMA Region X Director has stated that “everything west of I-5 will be toast”. Come learn what we can expect and explore ways to be better prepared. \nCommunity Partnerships Panel \nThis panel will explore the different ways our local churches are partnering with other organizations to make a greater impact in the community. This discussion is designed to reflect on and seek inspiration for new ways we can be more effective in ministry when working with other secular and faith-based organizations. \nPanel will include partnerships with Habitat for Humanity\, Car Camping\, Family Promise\, Literacy Project and Recovery Café. \nAlternative Worship Panel \nIs there one way to worship? No! Messy church\, church inside\, church outside\, and more. This panel offers different approaches to worship. \nLet’s Get Together: Collaborative Conversation \nMore information coming soon \nHow to Connect with your Community: One-on-One Conversations \nMore information coming soon \nClick Here to Register Today!
