LAB CONGREGATIONS

By now all congregations should have received the application forms to apply to be one of four or five lab congregations to work with experts from Seabury Western. Deadline for the application is August 1st. Emmanuel Parish will be making an application to be come one. I encourage other congregations in Region III to apply also Hopefully, one congregation in Region III will be selected. That will be an advantage to us all because it will make travel easier and short for others who might want to participate and glean expertise from these congregational development workshops.
