Virtual Session Planned for MOAC21
Based on where we currently are [link removed] in the vaccination rollout and in our efforts to do no harm, we have decided to hold this year’s annual conference session virtually with invitation-only in-person attendance. This means that the vast majority of clergy and lay members to annual conference will attend and participate in annual conference virtually at home or wherever your internet connection takes you. We will have about 300-350 people in attendance physically (masked and socially distanced) in Springfield at any given moment through the course of the weekend. Those invited to attend in person include Conference and district staff, worship leadership, presenters, select Conference and district leaders as well as the guests of those being honored through our memorial service, credentialed, commissioned, ordained or retired. We have sent special communication to those people being invited to attend in person earlier this morning.
Another significant change to this year’s session is the move to two days of annual conference rather than three days. The session will be held on [link removed] Saturday and Sunday, June 12-13. We plan to use Friday, June 11, for quadrennial boundaries training. Read more on the plans for MOAC21 at [link removed] [link removed].
