Nearly 700 ELCA deacons, pastors and bishops (under call, on leave or disability, or retired) and candidates approved for call gathered for a time of intentional connection. It was a time to renew their strength, enjoy camaraderie with colleagues, and reflect on the Holy Spirit’s work among those present.

They gathered under the theme “Woven Together” and centered themselves each day on a thread of that theme:

·       "Woven Together With God.” 
·       "Woven Together for Creation.” 
·       "Woven Together as Community.” 
·       "Rostered Ministers Woven Together.”
