On Saturday, the Moderators’ Conference closed just as it had opened on Friday — with worship led by the Co-Moderators of the 226th General Assembly, the Rev. CeCe Armstrong and the Rev. Tony Larson, with Armstrong offering up a sermon she titled, “Who Needs Jesus?”
New mid council moderators and vice-moderators were given a 12-item to-do list as part of a workshop during the Moderators’ Conference last week, along with guidance provided by April Davenport, the PC(USA)’s General Counsel.
“We collect experiences, and we want to know good news and challenges you are dealing with,” said the Rev. Tony Larson, who along with the Rev. CeCe Armstrong is Co-Moderator of the 226th General Assembly (2024). Larson was speaking to a room full of teaching elders during a Saturday workshop at the Moderators’ Conference, held last week at the Presbyterian Center in Louisville, Kentucky, and attended in person and online by about 130 moderators of mid councils in the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.).
If there’s one thing that convinces the Rev. Jihyun Oh that she ought to say yes to a call, it’s “when a call scares me a little, a call I cannot do without God’s help.”
Presbytery and synod moderators and moderators-elect from around the country are at the Presbyterian Center in Louisville, Kentucky and online Friday and Saturday for the annual Moderators’ Conference, which commenced with thoughtful and winsome worship led by the co-moderators of the 226th General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), the Rev. Tony Larson and the Rev. CeCe Armstrong.
