Conference calendar, lectionary readings

In 2013 there will be two conference-wide Confirmation Retreats at Glisson, one Jan. 25-27 and one Feb. 15-17. “Pieces” is the theme for the weekends as we look at the pieces that come together in our journeys of faith as United Methodists. Worship, learning, fun and fellowship will be components of the retreat. Register at www.ngumc.org/confirmation.
