PNC Board announces Annual Meeting and news

The PNC Board of Directors announces events and plans for upcoming months.

• The 2025 Annual Meeting will be held Friday through Sunday, April 25 to 27, at the Yakima Convention and Event Center.

• The board and conference staff are partnering with the New York Conference of the United Church of Christ to receive anti-racism and cultural awareness training in fulfillment of the commitment the Conference made at Annual Meeting 2024, reported Designated Conference Minister Phil Hodson.

“From this training, we will be able to share a variety of available resources with the Committees on Ministry and local churches to increase our shared participation and learning,” he said.

• The board has hired new staff for N-Sid-Sen Camp and Conference Center on Lake Coeur d’Alene.

In January, Brian Wallace, who is coming from Missouri, will begin serving as the acting managing director at N-Sid-Sen.

“We are continuing to identify new opportunities for ministry and partnership to improve and stabilize the future of this sacred site,” said Phil.

• Another change is that the Conference will launch a new website offering many resources. Phil said the goal is for there to be easier ways to find access to grants and opportunities for clergy and local churches.

Ben Crosby, a retired UCC conference minister who lives in Wallace, will design one website with sections for the two camps and the Conference. He redesigned the N-Sid-Sen website.

• Conference vice moderator Esther Sanders invited folks to “prayerfully consider” serving on Conference committees or the Board of Directors.
