BISHOPS INVITE CLERGY, LAY LEADERS TO NETS BREAKFAST JULY 24
On behalf of The United Methodist Church and the United
Nations Foundation’s Nothing But Nets campaign – a global, grassroots campaign
to prevent malaria – Bishops Mike Coyner and Thomas Bickerton invite clergy and
lay leaders of both North Indiana and South Indiana Conferences to a breakfast
discussion with faith leaders from the ecumenical and interfaith community as we
United Methodists discern our emerging role in the fight against malaria.
During the week of July 21, Nothing But Nets will be in
Indianapolis as part of a multi-city, national grassroots initiative to engage
groups and individuals on the importance of malaria prevention. As a part of
this effort, Indiana United Methodist clergy and lay leaders are invited to join
Coyner and Bickerton in a complimentary breakfast and discussion on Thursday
morning, July 24 from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. EDT in Switzer Hall at the University
of Indianapolis, 1400 East Hanna Avenue. Clergy and local church lay leaders,
please RSVP regarding you and your guests coming to the breakfast to
Lisa Timmerman at 317/924-1321
by Thursday, July 17.
