As the Baltimore-Washington Conference continues to discern how to best position itself for greater vitality and effectiveness, Bishop LaTrelle Easterling and the Restructuring Task Force are hosting six listening sessions for all clergy and lay people who want to share their thoughts or learn more about the restructuring process. The sessions are being held across the conference to ensure everyone’s voice can be heard. See a video from Bishop Easterling on restructuring.

The final scheduled opening listening sessions will be held in person on Feb. 7, from 7 to 9 p.m., at St. Matthew's UMC at 14900 Annapolis Road in Bowie.

You are also invited to include the Baltimore-Washington Conference and the restructuring in your prayers every Wednesday at 12:01 p.m. during this season of deep listening, dialogue, and discernment.
