SUMMARY:The Katie 2019
DESCRIPTION:The Katie—a Michigan District conference for the wives and widows of pastors\, deacons\, and vicars—seeks to uplift the women God has chosen to be His hands and heart to the men He has called into the ministry. While these women carry a unique set of burdens\, they also enjoy some amazing and abundant blessings. The Katie is a celebration of those blessings and a support for those burdens. \nThe theme for 2019 is “Under the Mighty Hand of God\,” based on 1 Peter 5:6–11. God calls us to humility\, casting of anxiety\, sober-mindedness\, and watchfulness. Alone we cannot do this; all too frequently we find ourselves arrogantly holding onto burdens while numbing ourselves with the idle distractions of the world. In God we are restored\, strengthened\, confirmed\, and established. This year we will take time to further study Jesus as He washes the feet of His disciples; Shadrach\, Meshach\, and Abednego and their experience in the face of opposition; John the Baptist’s ability to remain sober-minded in a tumultuous time; and we will explore what the Apostle John would have us learn about being watchful in regards to the End Times. Our study will seek to see how God has and continues to restore\, strengthen\, confirm\, and establish His people.

SUMMARY:DCE/DFL Conference 2019
DESCRIPTION:As we minister to others\, we often neglect our own need for balance\, for health\, and for wellness. The Michigan District DCE/DFL Conference is your opportunity for a wellness check-up—spiritual\, relational\, emotional\, physical\, financial\, vocational\, and intellectual. DCE Jim Bradshaw and Pastor Gabe Kasper will guide us as we unpack each part of the ‘Wellness Wheel.’ Join us as we continue this much-needed conversation on Church Worker Wellness and work to create individualized strategies to help each worker to weather the storms of life and ministry. \n“And he awoke and rebuked the wind and said to the sea\, ‘Peace! Be still!’ And the wind ceased\, and there was a great calm” Mark 4:39 (ESV).

SUMMARY:All Pastors' Conference 2018
DESCRIPTION:“Do not conform to the pattern of this world\, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good\, pleasing and perfect will” (Romans 12:2). \nOur congregations always live on the line between the unchanging truth and the always changing world. The decade ahead promises even more radical change in marriage\, family life\, education\, and therefore in ministry. Come join us as\, guided by God’s Word\, we consider how to face change\, how to keep what must not change\, and how to be changed ourselves with minds constantly renewed by the Holy Spirit. Great speakers\, good conversation\, time for rest and refreshment\, and daily worship with your fellow workers in the harvest field will equip you to navigate the changing landscape ahead. \nDownload all of the Conference Resources here
