The pastors along with Earle Harvey as Lay Member to Annual Conference, and Merrill Kaiser as Equalization Member, attended the New England Annual Conference from June 13-15.Shown on the left is George Walters-Sleyon telling the story of his unlawful detainment as an immigrant, and the horrors he experienced. He finished by singing an amazing praise song about God's faithfulness through it all.
All of the conference sessions and worship were held in the Gordon College Chapel shown here. The weather was amazing so we ate outside for many of the meals. 
Pastor Gwyneth gave the conference the photo of Dr. Malcolm Cass who served as organist for the Maine Conference for 25 years, and he was lifted up during the memorial service among other clergy and laity who have died this year.
NothingButNets was a hot topic for conference this year, with nets decorating the worship space and even hoops outside the chapel! The Tri-State District raised over $18,000, which was by far the most raised of any other district. Peoples had a big part in this, so thank you to all who donated, participated and headed up this mission!
