Annual Event Online Workshops

The Hosts for Annual Event Online

The Annual Event Online is more than just live streamed and recorded bits and pieces of an in-person conference.  It is an opportunity to connect with others who are participating online, and to have unique interactions with the leadership of this Annual Event, hosted by fellow Faith Formation colleagues.

Patty Garcia

AE Online in Spanish Host

Patty Arcia is the Director of Outreach at Myers Park Presbyterian Church in Charlotte, North Carolina.  Patty says, “It’s so joyful to share successes and challenges with people in your same roles, but it’s even better to be able to do it in your native language!  APCE is one of my favorite events for the possibility to connect, learn and grow in ministry. Having a Spanish online APCE event is even more exciting, as it would allow more of us Hispanic/Latinx leaders to engage with one another.”
