Your Call . . . Your Journey . . . Your Education
Greetings Sisters and Brothers:

As the Church of the Brethren encourages ongoing calling to ministry, the Susquehanna Valley Ministry Center (SVMC) continues our Calling Essay series throughout 2021. Throughout this year, members of our Governing Board will share their call stories and unique perspective on our theme: Follow the Path of Your Calling.  May you be encouraged by the monthly reflections and share the reflections with others in your congregation.
 
The five district partnership of SVMC is planning two Calling the Called events: a virtual event on May 1 and an in-person event on September 25. Think about persons in whom you see the gifts and graces for ministry. Encourage them to join one or both of the Calling the Called events. Many ministers answered their call to ministry because other persons named skills and gifts they saw. Who can you encourage? Watch for more information on the Calling the Called events or check with your district office.

SVMC's mission is to equip leaders for ministry in a regionally based, Christ centered, culturally relevant context in ways that bear witness to the beliefs, heritages and practices of the Church of the Brethren.
