Live Into Hope: Reflections from PSNE's 226th General Assembly Team

The PCUSA’s 226th General Assembly took place in Salt Lake City Utah from June 25th - July 4, 2024, and it was a powerful experience for all involved! 

In this episode, meet the PSNE 226th General Assembly Team:

• Rev. Anne Weirich (Commissioner and Polity Committee Chair; Honorably Retired, serves on Commission on Ministry at PSNE)
• Elder Nicole Aronson Champagne (Commissioner and Environment and Climate Committee Member; Nominating Committee Chair at PSNE)
• Rev. Kate Carlisle (Stated Clerk for PSNE and Boston)

Hear about their experiences from GA, including committee processes, electing new Co-Moderators and a new Stated Clerk, passing items of business, worshiping together, and dealing with a COVID-19 outbreak. From discussions on reducing single-use plastics and divestment from fossil fuels, to offering personal testimony as an overture advocate, this gathering truly offered an opportunity to live into hope.
