Excited to hear the report from churchwide at day 2 of #GMSAssembly23. Pastor Kevin Jacobsen shares that we have raised millions of dollars for Fund for Leaders, Women in Leadership, Federal Chaplaincy, New Start Ministries, and Global Missions.

The Young Adults in Global Mission program is regrouping and re-growing after Covid shut sites down in 2020 and 2021. We're back to 6 sites and 20+ candidates serving in 2023-24.

"We are a strong church when we're doing it together."

[Alexis Twito 🇺🇦🇵🇸 @ATwitoRev]

@PardeepKaleka says he's confident that there are people in this room who know young people in crisis, full of anger and hate, who need their love.

"So sow those seeds of love!" he challenges us to conclude.

@PardeepKaleka is our keynote speaker at the @MilwaukeeSynod
#GMSAssembly23.

He speaks to us about how to speak love to those who are different from you.

One of the big topics we're covering at the #GMSAssembly23 is learnings from the Diversity Audit that was conducted by Gold Enterprises.

Dr. Shaunna Gold is sharing what the audit is and what was learned.

Excited to kick off the #GMSAssembly23! Lots of resolutions to consider this year, and Reference & Counsel Chair Sara Bitner is reading them all to us now. All resolutions this year were submitted by the South Central Conference of the synod.
