BWARM ANNUAL MEETING
I'm looking forward to the BWARM Annual Meeting this coming Saturday, September 26th, and I hope to see many of you there. We're excited to welcome the new Executive Director of the Reconciling Ministries Network, Rev. Andi Woodworth, as our guest speaker!

We're meeting at Emmanuel UMC in Laurel (10755 Scaggsville Rd) from 9:30am-12pm. We'll gather for coffee and snacks at 9:30am and then at 10am move into worship, the short business meeting to elect the steering committee for the next year, and a time to hear from our guest speaker.

Not able to join us in-person? The livestream will start at 10am.
