“The Climate Crisis & Empowering Hope” is our theme for our 2023 national conference. The conference will deal with the greatest moral issue of the day and practical ways that our faith can guide us to act for creation care. We will gather in person in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley and at three satellite locations (California, Arkansas and Minnesota) and we will also stream all presentations online. We will learn from top church leaders, gifted biblical and theological teachers, activists, pastors, and one another. This important conference will make a difference for God’s creation and the Church.  Here are our TOP 10 REASONS to attend the conference in-person at Massanetta Springs in Harrisonburg, VA or one of our satellite locations in  Berkeley, CA, Minneapolis, MN, or Little Rock, AR: catch up with old friends make new friends build relationships with unlikely partners interact with unknown like-minded persons experience stimulating conversations over meals  return to high school and find out if you can still make it to class on time read body language when speaking or listening hear different perspectives on subjects that you care about ask questions of speakers after presentations meet PC(USA) staff and other professionals talk casually with PEC steering committee and members Of course, attending the conference VIRTUALLY is also a great option for those who prefer to do so! Whichever method of participation you choose, please register for the conference TODAY!  Registration for some of our in-person locations closes on September 1. How else can you help support the 2023 National Earth Care Conference?  Your prayers and donations are both invaluable means of supporting this important event in a a time of ecological crisis.  You can make a financial donation directly to the PEC Conference through our online registration page HERE.
