POTLUCK EXPERIENCE EVENT!
It’s almost time! The Illinois/Wisconsin District’s biennial Potluck Experience event happens Saturday, April 22 this year at Dixon Church of the Brethren. A team has been hard at work planning for it, and it promises to be a fun, educational, and uplifting day using the district’s 2023 theme, “Encourage One Another.”
The keynote speaker will be Greg Davidson Laszakovits, who will also be sharing at the district’s spring clergy retreat. Greg is an ordained minister in the Church of the Brethren from Lancaster, Pa., who now runs his own consulting company, GDL Insight, with an emphasis on leadership and organizational development, with a special interest in churches and related groups. He will help us imagine what church and ministry might look like in our changing times.
The day will include worship and several “equipping session” workshop options, including a follow-up session with Greg, a presentation on creative worship centers, a celebration of Brethren Volunteer Service’s 75th anniversary, and ideas for reaching kids in our communities.
And, of course—true to the event’s name—the Potluck Experience will feature a good potluck meal in the middle of the day. Everyone is asked to bring a dish or two or three to share!
The excitement begins with registration and fellowship time from 8:30-9:15 a.m. and wraps up with a closing circle at 3:20 p.m. Mark your calendars and join the feast!
