New CORR Connection Calendar needs your dates

We are creating a CORR Connection Calendar of upcoming meetings and activities involving commissions on Religion and Race and counterpart groups* in our various annual conferences, and we need your help.

Please send us information, with key details, about upcoming meetings and events that involve your CORR ministry in a significant role. Please include dates, locations, contact info and any special agenda highlights planned for those events. Be sure to let us know of planned dates for your upcoming CORR meetings.

So far, responses to the 2009 Information Update questionnaires have identified several upcoming events worth noting:

Annual Conference	Event	Dates
Troy	Diversity Training, led by Eric Law of the Kaleidoscope Institute. For youth & adults.	April 17-19
Mississippi	Journey to the Light event at Choctaw Mission, Philadelphia, Miss. (“An intentional journey toward growing in love and fellowship across racial lines.”)	April 18
Oklahoma	“Overcoming Racism in the 21^st Century,” a multiethnic seminar with guest speaker, the Rev. Joseph Harris, (GCORR Board Member and Assistant to the Bishop).	May 9
North Texas	CORR Luncheon at Annual Conference	June 7-9
West Ohio	“Inclusive Body of Christ” training at Pastors Licensing School	July
West Ohio	Retreat for pastors and families in cross-racial/cross-cultural appointments	Fall 2009
New York	Anti-Racism Trainings for Clergy	Oct. 8-9 and Oct. 22-23
East Ohio	Seminar:“Replacing White Privilege with God’s Promise”	November

We want to update and expand this calendar monthly by listing more events with dates and descriptions; so please keep us in your loop by letting us know about your CORR activity schedule. Please also send us your CORR meeting schedule for 2009, so we can add a separate calendar of CORR meetings.

Thanks!

*Please note that while we customarily refer to conference “commissions on Religion and Race” or “CORRs,” we mean for that general reference to include equivalent ministries and counterpart groups that have different names but similar roles among the various annual conferences.
