United Methodists Uniting: Pennsylvania Anti-Poverty Summit II

Save This Date! Oct. 9-10, 2011 Camp Hill UMC, Camp Hill, PA

Featuring: Shane Claiborne
Bestselling Author, Prominent Christian Activist, Sought-after Speaker and Recovering Sinner. Founding partner of The Simple Way, a faith community in inner city Philadelphia that has helped to create and connect radical faith communities around the world.

Our first Anti-Poverty Summit just skimmed the surface. In Anti-Poverty Summit II we will learn how our churches can become centers of life and hospitality in communities. We will learn how to transform our churches into Saving Stations for persons living in spiritual and physical poverty.

At the Simple Way in Philadelphia, they live what they preach. The community believes those with plenty can meet the needs of the poor. Shane will offer direction and challenge us to follow Jesus and make the vision – of a Kingdom of God free of poverty and oppression – become real.

Prepare to be challenged. Prepare to have your life changed. And prepare to change the lives of others through the love of Jesus Christ.

Registration for the summit is $75 per person.

Scholarships will be available through the Eastern Pennsylvania, Susquehanna, and Western Pennsylvania annual conferences of The United Methodist Church.

CEU credits will be available.
