June 5-8, 2008, The Conference Center at The Maritime Institute, Baltimore, Maryland
Everyone, Everywhere is a conference for parishes, dioceses, individuals, and groups active in the global mission of The Episcopal Church. The event is an opportunity for people committed to building and maintaining companion relationships with our brothers and sisters in Christ around the world to:
- celebrate existing relationships and nurture new ones.
- meet with others who have common interests and experiences in specific regions or mission topics (water, Sudan, poverty, etc.).
- share personal mission stories.
- learn how to engage in more effective world mission.
The three day conference will give attendees a taste of the world through worship and music, dynamic plenary speakers/sessions, workshops that offer creative as well as practical approaches to mission, Bible study, innovative ways to engage in relationship-building, and space to meet with regional groups and mission networks. A marketplace of global crafts, a bookstore targeting global mission interests, and an exhibition hall for parishes, dioceses, and mission groups will provide a world of resources. Evening events will add to the festive, international flavor of Everyone, Everywhere.
The goals of the conference include:
- Drawing together people active in the world mission work of The Episcopal Church, especially those at the parish and diocesan levels, to exchange ideas and experiences to help them better serve Christ throughout the world.
- Delivering meaningful training on how to define mission, how to be intentional about the global church, and how to do mission better.
- Strengthening existing relationships and building new ones through worship, Bible study, dialog, and networking.
Everyone, Everywhere will focus on three central themes:
- Engaging in Effective World Mission
- The Church and Islam
- The Millennium Development Goals and Beyond
Mission organizations and networks, dioceses, and parishes will have the opportunity to support the event through sponsorships, exhibit booths, and conference volunteers.
Everyone, Everywhere will be held at The Conference Center at The Maritime Institute near Baltimore, Maryland. Registration fees include single or double accommodation in on-site hotel rooms, all meals, and transportation to and from the Baltimore Airport, Amtrak station, and light rail.
