Liberty District Conference

You don't want your team to miss the Liberty District Conference offering an all-inclusive getaway at Spruce Lake in Pennsylvania. Designed to enrich and connect staff from over 40 missions and ministries throughout the district, this event offers a wonderful opportunity to rest, rejuvenate, and retreat into the mountains as we reconnect with God, each other, and others doing the same important work.

Programming includes speakers and seminars, several resource tables, five meals together (dinner Monday through breakfast Wednesday) as well as plenty of opportunities to make new friends and deepen relationships.

Please note that September 12 is the last day to register for this event!
