$ UMC LEAD Online Conference (UMC LEAD)

UMC LEAD is excited to announce that this year we will be offering an online version of the 2022 LEAD Conference. While the in-person event was held in San Diego in January, the online conference will consist of the recordings of the 2022 talks as well as opportunities to interact with other LEAD participants.

The event will be held on Friday April 29th and Saturday April 30th. The schedule can be found on our schedule page.

LEAD creates space for Christian leaders to be vulnerable and courageous, connects them around their hopes for the future, and equips them to bring those hopes into reality. LEADers see a vision of the kin-dom of God and are willing to go through hell to get there. We support them on the journey.

We believe that LEADers are… Courageous, Collaborative, Vulnerable, Relational, and Hopeful.

As always, speakers were chosen from an application process and presented on a variety of topics. Speakers represented church, non-profit, education, and business leaders. Each speaker gave a 12-18 minute prerecorded “TED style” talk.

In addition to speaker sessions there will be other opportunities for small groups and community engagement.
