Each year, congregations across the ABT Synod are invited to gather together to worship, read the Word, pray, and have conversations, as well as enjoy good food and fellowship. This year we are unable to meet in person. We will be meeting virtually to share stories and celebrations, to connect with others in the Area, and to share Mission in Ministry. All are welcome welcome to participate!
