As we approach this season of decision-making in our country, with the election just around the corner, Rev. Ismael Ruiz-Millán takes a moment to acknowledge the deep responsibility clergy carry. These times can feel heavy, and the challenges facing our congregations and communities can weigh on our hearts. But please remember, you are not walking this path alone.
The Cabinet and Conference staff stand with our clergy, offering prayers, support, and resources to help you navigate these challenging days. Together, we seek to embody God’s love and be exemplars of unity, grace, and civility in a world that often feels divided.
