As we approach this one-year mark since shifting to virtual events, we wanted to take a moment to look back at the ways we have journeyed together. Since last March, we have hosted over 30 virtual events, with more than 2500 people participating in at least one event<\/strong>, including individuals from other conferences, other denominations, and sometimes even other parts of the world! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have loved being here to resource some of your needs, and we are grateful that so many of you have been able to participate in some of our offerings. Even more, most of these events have been recorded and are still available for viewing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
