The 2024 DR Congo Regional Annual Conferences adjourned on November 17th with a thanksgiving service. Presiding over the conference was Presiding Bishop K. Lawson Adjei of the 11th Episcopal District. Guests at the conference were Senior Bishop LL Reddick III and 1st Lady Wynde J. Reddick, General Officers Rev. Dr. Leon Moore and Rev. Dr. Ore Spragin. The conference brought together Pastors of our connection, Lay leaders, Women's Missionary Society members, Youths and Young Adults, Children and guests from Rwanda. Dr. Ore Spragin took the congregation on the introductory aspect of the Bold Steps Initiative, helping the delegates to grab the whole visionary concept of the Bold Steps initiative. Senior Bishop Reddick preached the closing sermon on the theme: "Stand Up & Fulfill Your Calling In The Kingdom of God" His text was rooted from 1Samuel 1:1-18. 1st lady Mercy sang once again to the admiration of the audience.


Other unfinished business of the conference were taken care of by Bishop Adjei. Honorable Philemon and family presented cash of $1,000.00 towards the purchase of sowing machines for Bishop Snorton Vocational School. Gifts were presented by the Women's Missionary Council to 1st Ladies, Wynde, Mercy & Mrs. Mugongo. Character of all Pastors were passed by the Presiding Prelate. Presiding Elders and Pastors were stipends. All other financial commitments made by the Bishop was fulfilled. The conference adjourned with a closing hymn "God Be With You Till We Meet Again" Closing prayers were said by Bishop Adjei and Senior Bishop Reddick gave the Benediction. To God alone be the glory.

GET CONNECTED CAMPAIGN

Greetings, Brothers, and Sisters in Christ, 

Some 10 million rural African Americans lack broadband internet, primarily in the South. They cannot use such essential services as online doctor visits, church services, school assignments, family connections, and voter registration. Thankfully, the Federal Communications Commission launched the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP), providing nearly 18 million low-income households nationwide with resources to pay for necessary broadband service. The ACP offers eligible families a $30 monthly discount on high-speed internet services, making access free for many participants.

 

Here's what you can do:

1 - Forward to pastors in your network serving rural communities the "Get Connect" Information card below with a contact number and website for guidance through signing up for the ACP program. 

To Apply Call 1 (877) 384-2575 or Visit www.GetInternet.gov/apply.

2. Encourage them to visit - https://www.skinnerleaders.org/getconnected to download the "Get Connected Toolkit."
