Bishop Cedrick Bridgeforth is inviting lay and clergy members within the Greater Northwest Area to conversations about resources, ministry and collaboration in the area, continuing conversations that annual conference members started when they met in June. This is another step in a discernment process that will help us determine our ministry priorities as we seek future opportunities to collaborate for better outcomes and greater efficiency. Later in the year, each annual conference will meet in a special session to approve a 2025 budget for their conference that reflects these conversations and moves us closer toward aligning our funding with our ministry, staffing, programmatic, and budget priorities.
