Division
of Ministry in the Local Church The Division on Ministry in the Local Church resources local churches in many aspects of community life. The Division is interested in hearing what you need and want to strengthen your ministry. In addition to our very successful Confirmation Retreats, the Dviision partners with Wisconisn Conference resource teams, including the Conference Youth Ministry Team and Partners in Education. Confirmation
Retreats
The
Division on Ministry in the
Local Church sponsors two Confirmation Retreats in October of
each
year. Providing Confirmation students the opportunity to
learn
about the wider church, the United Church of Christ, and other aspects
of faith, the retreats also offer a good time! A chance to
get to
know youth from other churches in the Association begins to build
relationships that can continue and be strengthened by participation in
camping and other conference events.
