Clergy and Lay members of the California-Nevada Annual Conference gathered on Thursday, June 15th to begin the activities for the 175th Session of the Annual Conference in Sacramento. This year, the session events began on Thursday and closed on Sunday to recognize Monday’s Juneteenth observance, now a federal holiday.
Sue Dickey, Laurel Williams, and Pastor Sunae came back inspired and challenged to share the work that we’ve done with our leadership, both clergies, laity, and the conference staff under the leadership of our Interim Bishop Sally Dick. In the midst of the United Methodist Church experiencing the church disaffiliation, our own Bishop Minerva Carcano’s suspension, church closures, and membership decline, as well as church plants and how our churches are bringing God’s “sozo”, salvation, and redemption here and now, we were reminded that even then, even now,….God is doing new things in our lives. Come friends, join us as we hear the Annual Conference Session report and give thanks to God.

The church council has decided to modify our Covid procedures for Sunday worship. To continue to provide enhanced ventilation we will open the back side double doors during worship instead of opening the divider wall. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Tom Huetteman, Joseph Koroma, or Laurel Williams.
God as Father/Parent/Jesus is a compassionate and loving God who welcomes everyone, regardless of who they are and What they are. God as Father/Parent/Jesus’ unconditional love reclaims and restores full relationships with the lost, who return home to God with a humble heart. Come and join us.
