As you or your clergy and lay member go to annual conference on Tuesday, May 29, in St. Cloud, one of the things we'll be focusing on will be the two imperatives for our annual conference--it's clergy, laity, and churches.
The two imperatives are:
Reach new people (based on the Great Commission -- Matthew 28:19)
Cultivate spiritual vitality (based on the Great Commandments -- Matthew 22:35-39)
How are you in your personal life already living out these two imperatives?
What questions do you have about them?
What suggestions would have you as to how we as individual Christians as well as churches could better live them out?
Please pray for us at annual conference and I'll look forward to reading your reflections!
Bishop Sally Dyck
