Bishop Scott Jones announced today that Rev. Robert Besser has been appointed as the new Associate Director of Church Leadership in the Center for Leadership Formation beginning July 1, 2021. Besser currently serves as the Director for Congregational Excellence.
Last year we introduced our virtual session of Annual Conference with the acknowledgement, “We’ve Never Done It This Way Before.” This year’s session will be more like, “Didn’t We Do Something Like This Last Time.” Our amazing Tech Team helped to develop a list of Frequently Asked Questions to make this year’s session easier for you.
Lent and Easter resources
The Texas Annual Conference has put put together some great resources to help you, your family and your congregation plan and prepare for this Easter season.
Looking for a way to worship without leaving the house?
A number of churches in the Texas Annual Conference are posting sermons online.
You don’t have to miss a service if you’re out of town or if you prefer to stay at home. Viewers can also enjoy multiple preaching styles and even virtually “attend” different churches. There’s a lot going on Sundays in the TAC that you won’t want to miss.
Sermons are often available to livestream on Sunday and several congregations also record services for on-demand viewing. Check them out at: https://www.txcumc.org/sermons
We would like to include your church in this list. Please let us know if you are posting a resource online by sending a link to: communications@txcumc.org
