Every year, we collect monetary donations to help local or those abroad.  This year, our offering will go to the ANE District Barnabas Fund.  The Barnabas Fund helps congregations with specific community outreaches. Some of the churches that receive funds annually are Germantown CoB, Harrisburg First CoB, Brooklyn First CoB as well as Alpha & Omega CoB.  You may donate to this fund during the Worship Service, Business Session or online when registering.  The fund is currently running low, and would welcome all donations.  Would you like to donate now?  Use this link to do so, and thank you!

During our business session, participants can take the opportunity to write encouraging notes to those currently serving in a Brethren Volunteer Service role.  Names, jobs and cards will be provided and ANE will send the notes to the workers.

This insight session, given by the ANE Shalom Team,  integrates biblical reflection with practical conflict navigation tools, drawing on the Kingian Nonviolence model. Participants will examine the Jerusalem Council in Acts 15 to identify the types and levels of conflict present among the early disciples. Through this lens, the session explores how differing viewpoints were engaged within a faith-centered community.

Participants will be introduced to KNV’s conflict framework and invited to reflect on how they manage themselves in times of disagreement—centering in faith, actively listening, affirming others, and engaging with respect and curiosity. The session aims to equip participants with a practical tool to engage more thoughtfully and constructively with those who hold differing perspectives.  (.1 CEUs available through the Nurture Commission).

Join Dennis Garrison and Bob Kettering for an engaging session of singing and reflection as they explore the rich history behind both well-known and lesser-known hymns from the Brethren tradition. Through music and storytelling, participants will gain deeper insight into the theological and cultural significance of these hymns and their place in Brethren worship.
