2024 ABCOFLASH ADVENT GATHERINGS

Advent is a busy time for churches, pastors, and ministry leaders. You are invited to take some time from the season's busyness to come together with others from your region to begin Advent in early December. Come and enjoy great fellowship, food and inspiration for the season! ABCOFLASH provides funds to offer these gatherings at a reduced cost or complimentary to encourage participation. Plan on participating in the event(s) that work for you and others from your church!

Everyday ABC Conversation!

Thursday - December 5th. Noon Pacific/1 PM Arizona Time

American Baptist Churches USA has created space for the “Everyday ABC Conversations,” a series of dialogues around "Harmony." Each Everyday ABC Conversation begins with a presentation by two leaders associated with the subject area, followed by a small group conversation in randomly assigned breakout rooms of up to 5-6 persons each. A typical discussion question might be, “What are the implications of what you have just heard for you and your congregation?” with additional relevant discussion questions for each topic. The entire conversation, including the presentation, lasts approximately one hour.
