Rockwall where approximately 280 of our pastors and key lay people attended the leadership seminar. One FM participant said, "The Summit reenergized me for service in and out of my church.  It was a refreshing and practical conference that offered sound ideas and processes as well as times of reflection and renewal."

Bishops' School For Renewal           October 7-9 at Warm Beach Camp.   The bishops of the FMC in the US look forward to connecting with the pastoral team during this interactive school.  The theme is "Set Free!"  Participation is expected of all appointed pastors.  Others in ministerial relationship are encouraged to attend.  Spouses are also warmly welcomed.  Housing is available at the Camp or at nearby hotels.  Contact Kathy at the Conference Office for more information.
