Dear Members of Annual Conference,

Bishop Trimble and the Annual Conference Sessions Team continue to plan for the upcoming August 15 Annual Conference Session with an abundance of caution.

We are moving forward with the 2020 Annual Conference with a virtual Clergy Session on July 18; a virtual Laity Session on July 25; and on August 15 the first predominately-virtual Annual Conference Session.

We strongly encourage members of Annual Conference to register and connect from the safety of their home through the ZOOM webinar link that will be provided to registered members. You will be able to fully participate and vote from home.

If you feel that connecting from home will not work for you, there is an option to register and attend at a regional site or Indiana Wesleyan University. These sites have limited space in order to practice social distancing. Face masks will be required, and we ask that you take your temperature and do not attend if you are sick. If this happens, you will still have the ability to connect from home.

All sites are for members only. All guests are invited to connect to the online live stream.

If the COVID-19 health situation worsens, we will close the in-person sites so that we lead with an abundance of caution.

For now, please register and read all of the provided information carefully. After you register, you will receive details about two training events so that you can learn how to fully participate virtually.

Continue to pray and trust God to lead us forward. To God be the glory!

Shalom,

Cindy Reynolds
Annual Conference Sessions Team Chair
