The Central Pacific Conference Annual Gathering is this month! You can register by clicking here. The schedule is below. The major change this year is that, due to the Coronavirus, the conference will be entirely online through Zoom. And it means that the conference is free! You do not have to pay to attend this year’s conference! (There is a $50 suggested donation to cover costs, but there is no need to pay that if it is burdensome.)
As always, the gathering will be a great opportunity for folks around the conference (which includes UCC congregations in Oregon, Southern Washington, and Idaho) to get together for fellowship, solidarity, and great conversations.
Our keynote speakers will be Dr. Randy and Edith Woodly. They are scholars, consultants, and Indigenous peoples. They will talk with us about our conference’s commitment to Indigenous folks and how we might be able to act in solidarity with our Indigenous siblings. You can learn more about them by clicking here.
