Illinois Conference UCC meeting -- preview

Today begins three days of the 42nd annual meeting for the Illinois Conference, United Church of Christ. We're meeting at Elmhurst College. This year's theme is "God is Still Speaking . . . Summoned to Serve." I'm really looking forward to the whole event -- as it has been several years since I've been able to attend the whole thing.
The featured speakers at this year's meeting are

Rev. Linda Jaramillo: Executive Minister of the UCC's Justice and Witness Ministries
Rev. Dow Edgerton: Academic Dean and Associate Professor of Ministry at Chicago Theological Seminary, and
Ms. Katie Mellentine: Member of Granville United Church of Christ and the Illinois Conference Youth Initiative (ICYI)

I'll post some reaction to the meeting here over the next few days.
