The Northern New England Conference Religious Liberty Retreat is here! Our theme for this timely event is “Learning From The Past – Preparing For The Future”. Come join us on May 9-11 at Camp Lawroweld as we prepare to navigate the road ahead, upholding “the banner of Truth and Religious Liberty” together in the NNEC. Our speakers will be Pastor Ron Kelly, NNEC Religious Liberty Director Greg Vatistas and NNEC Youth Director Trevor Schlisner. We will cover topics such as Liberty of Conscience in the light of historical as well as current events to prepare us as a conference to move forward with unity in the face of future challenges. Our purpose in this event is to seek the Lord and learn together how He would lead His people at this time in this very important subject. Don’t miss this special opportunity to press together in Jesus and unify in His final message.
