August 27 – 29
This August, Organizing for Mission Network (OFMN) will be hosting their largest training ever. With regional partners and leaders from across the country, they will convene in Tacoma, WA. First United Methodist Church, which is also home to Common Good Tacoma, will serve as host.
Registration is now open. It is $250 for OFM Network members, (including participants from member organizations like the diocese) or $350 for non-members. Registration covers program costs and 4 meals. Participants are responsible for housing costs and travel to Tacoma. The planning team will work on logistics from SEA airport or the Tacoma train station.
As part of their equity commitment, scholarships are available and distributed by the planning team. To request support, please fill out this short form [https://us.list-manage.com/qUAoe7ndchw?e=8a46238e4a&c2id=0d5c8ccca1e81c4acd3e9715d4a647a2].
A hotel block is available at the Courtyard Marriott Tacoma Downtown for $179 per night. The link for this will be available soon.
A small group of leaders will be meeting before the training to participate in a Train-the-Trainer gathering. If you are interested in joining that, please complete this survey. Click here [https://us.list-manage.com/N6dTJCWuDH5?e=8a46238e4a&c2id=0d5c8ccca1e81c4acd3e9715d4a647a2].
