Shared with permission from the Church of the Brethren’s Missouri and Arkansas District, to inspire others to attend their own district conferences:
The Top 10 Reasons to Attend the 2024 MO AR District Conference
With apologies to those attending online who cannot enjoy some of these:
10. Picking up lots of cool stuff and information at the booths and displays.
9. Hearing about what the denominational agencies are doing to help your congregation.
8. Growing in wisdom and in spirit as you learn from guest speakers.
7. Making new friends as you meet new people.
6. Eating the delicious food served by the Warrensburg congregation (maybe even some of Martha Louise’s Gooseberry Pie?)
5. Hearing what has happened this past year in your district.
4. Meeting the 2025 Annual Conference moderator Dava Hensley and hearing her words from God.
3. Discussing the business of the district and making decisions which affect your district and congregation.
2. Worshiping together and singing in four-part harmony.
1. AND, the number 1 reason will always be THE FELLOWSHIP with brothers and sisters in Christ!
