Mission Conference highlights and a special throwback!

Do you remember when Mission Conference was held in person? Check out the throwback photo below from Saskatoon in 2015! Well, we’re excited to announce that this year, we’re back in person and hope to see as many of you as possible in Edmonton. While you’re welcome to join us online, nothing beats the energy of gathering together face-to-face. 

Here are some of the exciting highlights you can look forward to in Edmonton:

• Delicious meals cooked by Susan Levitt and Kay Lindemann!
• All four members of our MCP team—Gwyn Beer, Shannon McAdam, Kat Goheen, and Becky Middleton—will be there in person!
• We’re thrilled to welcome special guest minister Vonda DenBoer from the Canada East Mission Centre President's team!
• Apostle Art Smith will offer an overview of the next steps as we continue onward guided by Onward Together and will lead the discernment process considering  the Draft Policy on Priesthood and Personal Relationships. 
• Leandro Palacios, from the Canadian Communications Team, will lead a discussion where we will discern together how to be inclusive when we share our story on social media, and why this is crucial for inviting people to church.
• Guest musician Edith Wallace will delight us with her music, storytelling, and charming wit.
• Young Adults (19-35ish), don’t miss a fun Saturday evening with Leandro, filled with conversation and new friendships!
• And that’s just the beginning! Head over to our registration page for the full schedule and all the details.
