We are excited to invite you to the next iteration of this work of re-engagement. Albany Presbytery will join together for a retreat:
- Where: Silver Bay Conference & Family Retreat Center
- When: May 30–May 31: Albany Presbytery Gathering
- Optional: May 29th: Optional day to enjoy the facilities at Silver Bay concluding with a relaxing evening program and Vespers led by our chaplain, Rev. Laura Mitchell.
Because this is intended primarily as a time for community connection, we welcome anyone who serves at or attends one of our congregations. The business portion of our meeting will be very compact.
To help guide conversations together, we are blessed to have Rev. Thia Reggio, who has served the denomination in numerous ways including community organizing, disaster response, policy writing, and parish ministry. She currently serves as pastor of Second Presbyterian Church in New York City, on the Advisory Board of the Center for Earth Ethics, and as a congregational consultant with the Vandersall Collective.
She is passionate about building community in settings where community has been hard to come by and has thought deeply about the barriers to creating a sense of shared mission. We are grateful to her for sharing her expertise with us and we hope to see you in May!
If you have any questions please contact the presbytery at [email protected] or by calling 518-273-4991. You can also reach out directly to Silver Bay if you have specific questions about the accommodations and provisions.
Come join us.
