Northern California Nevada Conference 2013 Annual Gathering

From the NCNC Conference Moderator:

Dear NCNC Friends and Family:

I hope each of you is experiencing the blessings of the Advent season. May each of us find this period of waiting a time of anticipation, creativity and transformation. I am writing to you today to invite you to the Northern California Nevada Conference Annual Gathering 2013 which will be held May 2-5 at the Sofitel Hotel in Redwood City. More information about this event can be found at www.ncncucc.org.

Our theme is "Growing Stronger Together" which will be shaped by the text from Acts 9 about Paul's journey on the road to Damascus. Our keynote speaker is the gifted musician and theologian, Bryan Sirchio. He will share some fresh ideas about music in worship as well as challenge us to step a bit out of our own "musical comfort zones" in our congregations and various ministries. Come and learn, come and sing with us, come and be touched by the rhythm of life.

I hope you will consider joining us for a rich time of worship, fellowship, workshops and spiritual growth. Every member church of the NCNC is encouraged to send adult and youth delegates this year as we would like to increase participation. Your presence makes such a difference to us all, as the diversity of our conference is something to celebrate and to experience together...throughout the year as well as at our Annual Gathering.

Registration will be available online very soon and you may contact me, our Annual Gathering Planning Team members or our conference staff if you have any questions.

I encourage you to consider submitting business proposals for consideration by the Annual Gathering delegates no later than Jan 15, 2013. They can be submitted by email to the NCNC Business Committee, via my email below

Advent blessings to you all,

The Rev Dr Laura Barnes Coney, Moderator
Northern California Nevada Conference
