Commission on Congregational Life
​

​Regional Cohort Gatherings
​
We want to get to know one another so we can purposely pray for each other and share how God is working in our congregations. ​
Bloomington-Normal Regional Gathering | Friday, August 28, 5 pm
First Presbyterian Church: 2000 E. College Ave., Normal, IL
Picture
All Bloomington–Normal area Presbyterians are invited to a Hymn Sing. We'll gather in the sanctuary at 5:00 for a brief welcome and introductions before singing hymns selected by participants and closing with fellowship and refreshments. Priority will be given to hymn requests submitted here by Monday, August 24. This will allow time to prepare printed words for hymns not found in our hymnal.  Questions may be directed to [email protected].

​Let Brandy know when your cohort is meeting so she can update the regional gathering
event page and the PGR calendar. If you have photos from your gatherings, we'd love to share them in our newsletter! Send meeting details and pictures to [email protected].

​We had a great turnout at the Presbytery of Great Rivers mid-eastern 
regional gathering hosted by Central PC in Petersburg on March 8.  
Folks from eight churches shared fellowship, exchanged stories about their ministries, and made plans to connect again soon.

​​​Many thanks to Biggsville for hosting their first regional gathering
​in March.  Can't wait to see what they plan next!
