Dr. Harlan Gillespie, Assistant to Bishop Laurie Haller, talks about how the gatherings will be an opportunity to have a voice in the future of United Methodist ministry in Iowa. He notes that the Bishop will be present at each event to receive questions, share hopes, hear concerns, and provide an update on the future of the denomination as it will be discussed at the international gathering, the General Conference, in May. New ways of collaborating in circuit ministries of Iowa United Methodists will be presented in addition to a conversation about finances.'
