SUMMARY:Regional Gathering 2025
DESCRIPTION:2 Corinthians 4:7-9 (NRSV)7 But we have this treasure in clay jars\, so that it may be made clear that this extraordinary power belongs to God and does not come from us. 8 We are afflicted in every way but not crushed\, perplexed but not driven to despair\, 9 persecuted but not forsaken\, struck down but not destroyed. \n\n\n\n\nAcross generations\, believers have embraced the enduring love and boundless grace of God. Like clay jars\, we acknowledge the fragility of life\, yet within that fragility lies the beauty of transformation. Our brokenness does not disqualify us; instead\, it becomes the very place where God’s power is made visible. \n\n\n\nWe are restored\, repaired\, and reshaped\, entrusted to carry God’s presence with a hope that cannot be broken. As a church\, we live on the edge of renewal\, constantly being made new\, transformed into the diverse shapes\, sizes\, and colors that reflect the fullness of God’s vision for us. \n\n\n\nREGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN!\n\n\n\nWORKSHOPS\n\n\n\nA variety of educational opportunities will be offered in the morning and afternoon. Minister of New Church Strategies Rev. Dr. Jose Martinez will be delivering a workshop at 1:00 PM. \n\n\n\nThe Age of Protopian Church\n\n\n\nProtopias are a middle ground between dystopias (which obviously bad) and utopias (which are perfect but unattainable and therefore demoralizing. We will explore current cultural trends that are bringing hope to the younger generation and how your congregation can leverage the trends to co-create a realistic better tomorrow. \n\n\n\nPARKING\n\n\n\nThere are several parking lots and structures located near the Disciples Ministry Center that can be found on this map. \n\n\n\nWATER REFILL STATIONS will be located throughout the venue. We encourage you to bring a refillable water bottle with you to the Regional Gathering. \n\n\n\nLIVE-STREAMED WORSHIP\n\n\n\nFor those who are unable to join us in person\, worship services at the Regional Gathering will be live-streamed on the Disciples PSWR YouTube channel. \n\n\n\nTRANSLATIONS IN SPANISH\, KOREAN AND CHINESE/MANDARIN will be available the day of the event through printed/digital programs and audio interpretation. \n\n\n\nEXHIBITORS\n\n\n\nWe encourage attendees to visit with the exhibitors\, including New Church Ministry\, before\, after\, and in between sessions of the Regional Gathering.

SUMMARY:Georgia Regional Assembly
DESCRIPTION:We are happy to announce that Rev. Dr. Jose Martinez (interim Minister of New Church Strategies) will be delivering a workshop\, accompanied by Program Coordinator Wesley King\, on pandemic-informed church at the Christian Church in Georgia’s in-person Regional Assembly. \n\n\n\nParticipants at the assembly will be convening around the theme “Re-church: Re-cast Your Net” from John 21. \n\n\n\nIn this chapter\, we read of the disciples who\, when faced with a new reality\, tried to go back to fishing—and the way they’d always done it. But even that — what they thought they knew — was no longer working. That’s when Jesus showed up and said\, “Cast the net on the right side of the boat\, and you will find some.” With their nets breaking from the fish they had caught\, they recognized Jesus. \n\n\n\nWith the new realities faced by churches and people of faith\, it’s time to discover where Jesus is inviting us to cast our nets. Hosted by First Christian Church\, Athens\, the 170th Georgia Regional Assembly will include opportunities for learning\, worship\, and reconnecting for Disciples of all ages. Here are some highlights: \n\n\n\nFood Truck Tailgate Dinner will open the Regional Assembly on Friday evening at 5 pm. This is a town that knows how to tailgate —you won’t want to miss the fun and reconnecting!\n\n\n\nOpening Worship is November 11\, at 7 pm\, featuring Rev. Dr. Amy Butler\, Interim Senior Minister of National City Christian Church\, Washington\, D.C.Youth will participate in the Regional Assembly with Youth Lock-in Friday evening through Saturday. A Children’s Program for grades K-5 and Nursery Care for infants through Pre-K also will be available Friday evening and Saturday.Saturday Session for November 12 includes Rev. Dr. Nathan Brown\, Senior Pastor of Sandy Springs Christian Church\, leading a morning Bible study\, followed by “worshipful work” combining worship\, business\, celebration\, and connecting.Saturday Lunch Options will include a luncheon hosted by Disciples Women with Rev. Sylvia Stroy\, former Moderator of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in Georgia\, presenting “Called as Women to Serve with Joy & Purpose.” Disciples Men will host lunch with Rev. Tom Edmondson\, Pastor of First Christian Church of Atlanta\, Tucker\, speaking on “Being a Christian Man in Today’s World.”

SUMMARY:North Carolina regional assembly
DESCRIPTION:A NEW WAY TO ASSEMBLE IN NORTH CAROLINA\n\n\n\nDownload the Letter | Register by Mail  \n\n\n\nYou have surely heard that old tagline often used in reference to Gotham and its five boroughs: New York\, New York – the city so nice they named it twice. Well\, the same type of sentiment may be applied to the upcoming Regional Assembly of the Christian Church in North Carolina (CCNC) – so fabulous that one day is not enough. \n\n\n\nThis year\, the region will be dividing its Assembly into two parts – A and B – both of which are being offered virtually this year. Participants will gather around the theme: Telling Our Stories – Vital Conversations. \n\n\n\nJose Martinez (Associate Minister of New Church Ministry) will be attending Assembly A. \n\n\n\nAssembly A: Telling Our Stories April 23rd at 9:30 AM \n\n\n\nIt has been a tough couple of years for congregations\, ministers\, and laypeople of the CCNC. In many\, many ways\, we have not been able to be church and do ministry in the ways that have been most familiar to us. But God has been with us\, stirring us to try new things and venture in new directions. In short\, the wilderness in which we have been traveling has not been devoid of grace\, and we have stories to tell about what these experiences have meant to us. We will start the day with Rev. Chris Furr leading us to recognize and claim this remarkable\, divine presence\, and we will have the opportunity to hear some other brief voices from our region telling some of their stories. There will be the mix of music and celebration\, business and deliberation\, and a closing communion service led by Rev. Bishop Valerie Melvin (North Carolina Regional Minister) to wrap up our storytelling.

SUMMARY:Return to “Why” – Reassessing & Reapplying Your Values & Beliefs
DESCRIPTION:“Upgrade Thursdays” are coming to Georgia Disciples! \n\n\n\n“Upgrade Thursdays” is a creative experience using a virtual platform to inform\, inspire\, and encourage the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in Georgia family. Drawing from expertise throughout the region and denomination\, presenters will offer an hour-long\, Assembly-style workshop on selected Thursday evenings to Disciples across Georgia. Whether you’re a church member\, lay leader\, or clergy\, you will find multiple opportunities to join in the ways God is leading us in the regional ministry’s LIFT mission: Loving\, Impactful\, Faithful\, and Transforming leaders and communities of faith. (Plus you can skip the travel and stay within the comfort of your own home.) \n\n\n\nPastor Terell L. McTyer will be presenting Return to “Why” – Reassessing & Reapplying Your Values & Beliefs. \n\n\n\nThis workshop will help clergy and lay leaders evaluate the principles on which their ministries are built. With the changes in doing ministry that 2020 and 2021 have brought\, how can we shape our values and mission to meet the needs of our respective local contexts? Pastor McTyer serves as Minister of New Church Strategies for the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in the United States and Canada. \n\n\n\nShare “Upgrade Thursdays” with other members of your congregation!
