A space of nurture for those in rural congregations and for the communities in which they live. Rural Routes is a gathering with time for both structured and informal conversations, worship, education, play, prayer, and table fellowship. We’d like to share our stories and to hear yours; what is working well and what you lament or long for, what brings you joy and who is your neighbour. We’d like to imagine together ways in which members of small, rural congregations might remain grounded in and able to share the Gospel despite sometimes challenging circumstances.

Main presenter: Dr. Marvin Lee Anderson, a theologian and consultant on rural congregational ministry and spiritual renewal, with a particular calling to teaching and mentoring lay and ordained ministers in rural pastoral charges; and formerly in charge of the national portfolio on Rural Ministries at the General Council Office of The United Church of Canada.

Registration fee: $35 (includes lunches and suppers but attendees are responsible for their own accommodation arrangements)
