WHAT: A summit to discuss the future of the United Methodist Church, centering POC+Q+T (People of Color, Queer, and Transgender) voices in leadership
WHEN: May 17-18, 2019 with pre-Conference May 17, Conference May 18
WHERE: Lake Harriet UMC 4901 Chowen Ave S, Minneapolis, MN 55410
WHO: POC + Q + T people of faith and allies are invited to register and attend
WHY: The United Methodist Church General Conference 2019 showed the world that some of the most articulate, faithful, visionary leaders of the church are POC+Q+T. And yet, while post-General Conference gatherings have been organized for United Methodists who oppose the Traditional Plan, there has not been a gathering planned to specifically center POC+Q+T voices in leadership — until now!
