Sunday of Rest and Renewal Worship Service
June 11-14, 2020During these most challenging times we want to remind each of you to take good care of yourselves. As you are aware, our Annual Conference session has been postponed until this fall, but this gives us a window for much needed rest and renewal.
The dates for our Annual Conference (Thursday, June 11 – Sunday, June 14, 2020) should already be marked on your calendars. These are dates when you, as pastors, were already expected to be away from your pulpits and away from day-to-day activities. With this in mind, we encourage you to take these days as true sabbath, time for respite, rest and renewal.
To help you make this a truly restful time, on Sunday, June 14, 2020 we will offer a full Sunday Worship Service recording as a gift to our pastors and churches during these difficult times to be used in a manner that is most appropriate for your ministries.
Find Sunday Worship Here
1) Placed on our NYAC YouTube channel;
2) Streamed on the NYAC Facebook page on Sunday morning at 8:45;
3) Made available by telehone (phone number is: 929-436-2866) for those who prefer to listen in on Sunday.
