JUNE 12, 2023 EDITION

Lisa Allgood, Executive Presbyter

The Living Word of the Living God is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow – but the way we live that worship must take into account each generation, and let them not only find their voice – but express their voice in worship in a way that they grow in the Spirit, and that the Living God is glorified.

THE BELOVED COMMUNITY

Summer Soul Siesta!

Spiritual teacher and writer, Mark Nepo says that our real life's work, our vocation, is our soul's awakening. Join your friends and colleagues in ministry for a time of rest, feeding our spirits, and cultivating spiritual community.

The Presbytery's Center for Learning will be offering this day of respite for pastors and preachers on Monday, August 14th 9:00am until 4:00pm at the Milford Spiritual Retreat Center.

There will be a social time at the Little Miami Brewing Company immediately following.

Please email Sheryl Helsinger at cpresby.org to register by July 19th.

Boundaries Training is required for all Presbytery of Cincinnati Teaching Elders and Commissioned Ruling Elders serving a parish and is to be completed every three years. It is also recommended that Ruling Elders also take the training as well as those teaching or ruling elders who are serving as supply preachers. Please consider registering and participating in one of the two sessions offered in the fall. You will need to register via the link below so that you can get credit for participation. The training is sponsored through the Synod of the Covenant and so is free to you.
