Regional Prayer Gathering for General Conference

As The United Methodist Church approaches our General Conference meeting, scheduled for April 23 – May 3, the West Virginia delegates extend a warm invitation for you to join us in prayer and worship.
We have organized five regional gatherings across the conference, offering a space for learning, worship, prayer, and communion, followed by informal conversations and refreshments.
Our delegation, both in-person and through Zoom meetings, regularly comes together to support one another in preparation for this important work. We have engaged in times of prayer and scripture study as a team. In one gathering, we were guided in conversation by Sue Nilson Kibbey as we sought a breakthrough prayer focus for our delegation. We plan to share this guiding prayer during the regional gatherings and invite you to join us, praying to support our endeavors in the days and weeks ahead.
Your presence, whether in person or in spirit, is greatly valued as we seek God’s guidance and strength for the responsibilities before us.
