Central Nebraska Presbytery 2035? 

Today is full of possibilities and challenges in ministry in Central Nebraska.  Who will we be and what might it be like in 10 years? What’s your role in giving shape to that future?  How can we build realistic hope and a courageous relationship with the future of Christ’s ministry in Central NE?  That is the theme we’ll be dancing around during the Central NE Presbytery gathering October 25 at First Presbyterian Church in Kearney.  Dr. Corey Schlosser-Hall will be our preacher and workshop leader for this time.
