Adult Convo Is Now HISTORY!!
"Make The Moravian
Journey Home... and Catch A Vision for Our Future"
Prague and Herrnhut!!!
This convo was truly a once in a lifetime opportunity. Seeing the sites and feeling the history was inspiring to say the least. All 108 sojourners have returned safely from the 9 or so days of exploring our roots and looking toward the future. We were blessed beyond compare. Worshipping in Herrnhut and Berthelsdorf was indescribable. Here are a few highlights of pictures. More will be posted soon.
Convo 2005 is now HISTORY - and it MADE history!
Everyone from the south made it back home safely, though there were a few airport stories of note. Initial response to this convo is very positive. THANK YOU to those who went. May it be a blessing to you for years to come.

Learn the Story, Live the Faith
Moravian Youth Convocation
The University of Calgary
Alberta, Canada
July 1-7, 2005
www.mcnp.org/convo2005
This Convo's mission,
derived from the theme "Learn the Story, Live the Faith," is
to give youth an intensive study in the basics of what the Bible means
for us as Moravians, for it is from the Bible that we learn of the
love of God for all of creation but most especially God's love for
humanity. The Bible also then gives us the word of challenge to not
only accept God's grace but to embody it in the way that we live in
community with all God's children.
