New Year, New Calendar, New "Office"
A new year always brings fresh energy, and 2026 is no exception for the Shenandoah River District. While the district team has moved out of our physical office and into fully remote work, our commitment to being present has not changed. You will still see us on the road, in congregations, and around the district, connecting face to face and supporting the work God is doing in local ministry.
We are also excited to share the new VAUMC calendar, which brings together conference-wide events, local church happenings, and Shenandoah River District gatherings in one place. It is one more way to stay connected and see how God’s work is unfolding across our shared life. The calendar is filterable and searchable and offers a number of different views (Monthly, Weekly, Year, List, Tiles) and gives viewrs the ability to toggle calendars and events on and off.
In his message linked above, our District Superintendent reflects on what it means to stay connected in this season. He offers a simple but meaningful invitation for clergy to take a colleague out for coffee, build community, and continue the work of God’s kingdom together. As this new year begins, may it be filled with connection, collaboration, and God’s blessing on all that lies ahead in ministry.
