Adjusted Dates for the 2024 Annual Conference session announced

The 2024 Annual Conference session dates have been adjusted. The conference, originally scheduled to begin on Sunday, June 2, and conclude on Wednesday, June 5, will now adjourn on Tuesday, June 4.
 
The decision to adjust the dates was made after careful consideration by Bishop David Graves and conference leadership. 
 
“After reviewing the agenda for our time together, we do not feel that the half-day originally scheduled for June 5 is necessary,” said Mrs. Meredyth Earnest, Conference Secretary. “Our recent norm has been to utilize a Sunday-Tuesday schedule in non-voting years, and we feel that this timeline still allows for adequate discussion of all matters before conference members.”
 
The 2024 Annual Conference session will be held at the UGA Tifton Campus Conference Center, in Tifton, Ga. Conference will begin on Sunday evening, June 2 with an opening worship service. It is now scheduled to conclude by 5:30 pm on Tuesday, June 4, with the fixing of appointments and sending forth service. The theme for this year’s Annual Conference is “One Matters” based on Luke 15. The basic agenda can be viewed here.
 
Conference members are advised to make any necessary adjustments to previously-made hotel reservations directly with the hotel.
 
“We look forward to a successful and meaningful conference and thank all participants for their active participation on behalf of their local churches,” said Earnest.
