*Ministers in the District are invited.
Please notify Glen Cathcart by March 22 if you are planning to attend. My telephone is 615-451-3884.

The District's Lay Speaking School will be held on April 13-14. White House United Methodist UMC will host the event.

Another group of Laity will be involved at Westmoreland UMC with a Revitalization Study. This Study will be undertaken in the months of late March-April and May

We ask your prayers as we go about participating int the tasks whic we have planned for the coming months.
