Upcoming Webinars and Events from the UCC

August 20, 2022 in Conference News

Thursday, August 25, 3:30pm ET - Moving Through Life With Embodied Grace

How do we connect the inspired mind of Christ to the often tired Body of Christ? What spiritual practices allow us to tap into the “fount of every blessing” even as we engage the urgencies of our time?

Join Matt Carriker, the founding pastor of Agape Spiritual Community UCC in Waltham, Massachusetts and Gabrielle Chavez, organizing pastor of Christ the Healer UCC centered in the Portland Oregon metro area as we explore some cutting edge work at the intersection of activism and contemplation coming out of two newer congregations.

As part of the conversation, there will be an offering of understanding and practice that evolved from over a generation of experience and experimentation to quickly access embodied grace, the state of being Jesus called “heaven on earth”.

Wednesday, August 24, 6:30pm ET - Annual Campaigns 101

Designed for pastors and lay leaders planning an annual pledge campaign, we will explore ways to create an effective campaign. We will reflect on core purpose of a campaign, discuss practical steps leaders can take, and explore creative ideas to design a campaign uniquely suited to your congregation. Join this webinar to develop and strengthen plans for a successful fall campaign.

Thursday, September 22, 8:00am-10:00am ET - Parker Lecture

Maya Wiley, newly appointed President and CEO of The Leadership Conference, will deliver the 40th annual Everett C. Parker Lecture and Jessica J. Gonzalez, co-CEO of Free Press will receive the Everett C. Parker Award and Talila "TL" Lewis, co-founder of HEARD, will receive the McGannon Award. Community and celebration is essential as we work to make our world more just, more connected and more accountable. Join with us as we reflect, rejoice and get energized.
