The Restored Church of God’s ministry serves members in over 65 nations and territories across the globe. The Ministerial Conference, held annually at the Church’s World Headquarters in Wadsworth, Ohio, is an invaluable event that allows leaders to gather and develop skills to better carry out Jesus Christ’s second commission: to feed the flock of God.

Pastor General David C. Pack began the event, which occurred from June 15-22, with his Keynote Address and the State of the Work. The coming days included pastoral training, updates on the Church’s operations, writing and public speaking workshops, and opportunities for fellowship.

Many attendees said they felt a deeper unity among the ministry than ever before. The event also allowed leaders to share their experiences and learn from one another.

The weeklong event served to inspire personal and spiritual growth in the ministry, who in turn were able to return home to do the same for members in individual pastorates.
