The Presbytery of the Upper Midwest met at Faith Presbyterian Church in Minnetonka on Friday evening, August 21 and Saturday morning, August 22 with nearly 50 people in attendance. It was a great time of worship, fellowship and fun. Rev. Tim Norton led the teaching time by encouraging us to lead our churches as gardeners rather than as mechanics. If you have never attended a meeting of the Presbytery of the Upper Midwest make your plans now to attend next August.
The National Gathering 2027 will meet in Irvine, TX Feb. 2-4. Registrations are open and it is my understanding that hotels in the vicinity are filling up quickly. Make you travel plans soon. There is more information under the ECO Events tab.
The ECO National Gathering is for pastors, elder, lay leaders, spouses, seminarians and students, staff teams, covenant partners and those interested in learning more about ECO. This gathering is beneficial for your entire leadership team and anyone involved in your local church. There is an immense opportunity for growth and bonding when you come to the gathering with others from your congregation! Take free time during the week to plan and pray, get to know others serving in similar church settings, or just hang out, have fun and make memories together!
