Regional Assembly 2018: Stories of Hope, Courage, Resistance, and Resilience
April 27-29 at Lloyd Center DoubleTree in Portland, OR. Stories of Hope, Courage, Resistance, and Resilience - and some fantastic speakers for the Pacific Western Region's 2018 Regional Assembly. Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal, Rev. Vanessa Rush Southern and UUA President Rev. Susan Frederick Gray, will give the keynote, lead worship and offer a special address. Registration has closed, but adults can still register at the door.
Pacific Western Region staff encourage our congregations to take a deep interest in each other; to consider best practices together; to model spiritual leadership with one another; and to share their stories of doubt, risk and transformation. By cultivating connections among our congregations, we seek to inspire new and innovative models of doing church and coach existing congregations to a deeper and a wider practice of faith, hope and love.
