GNW Laity session offered on June 14

The Greater Northwest Area’s Laity Session will be held at 6:30 p.m. Pacific Time on Tuesday, June 14, 2022, to discuss “being laity.” Alaska Conference Lay Leader Jo Anne Hayden, Oregon-Idaho Conference Lay Leader Paul Nickell and Pacific Northwest Conference Lay Leader Nancy Tam Davis will preside over this session. Lay members of the three annual conferences do not need to register separately for this gathering. A Zoom link will be sent to you in the days just before the gathering.

The Zoom meeting will feature worship and music components provided by several churches of diverse backgrounds from across the Greater Northwest Area. The guest speaker will be Sharon Gregory, lay leader from the Western Pennsylvania Conference of The UMC and past president of the Association of Annual Conference Lay Leaders.

From there, conferences will break out into individual discussion groups to talk about Gregory’s presentation and to conduct business relevant to the laity of each conference.
