Church of the Brethren districts are encouraged to host their own delegate briefings to help congregational delegates prepare for Annual Conference 2026, which is scheduled for June 28 to July 2, a Sunday to Thursday schedule, at the Grand Wayne Convention Center in Fort Wayne, Ind. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For delegates who cannot attend their district briefing, the Annual Conference officers are hosting an online briefing on Wednesday, May 27, at 8 p.m. (Eastern time). Register at https:\/\/us06web.zoom.us\/meeting\/register\/ZBmMbL8KTsuPXv9gR6Kz4w#\/registration<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

During this briefing, the officers will provide an overview of the Conference theme, scheduled Conference activities, business items on the agenda, and other details. Attendees also will have the opportunity to ask questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
