Community Conversations
Join UMCRM community members and friends for Zoom conversation on Camp/Retreat Ministry topics -- all are welcome.

Every other Wednesday on Zoom at 12 pm PT / 3 pm ET

UMCRM Community Conversations are a free, regular, virtual opportunity to connect and learn together around topics that matter to United Methodist Camp & Retreat Ministry leaders.

Coming up Wednesday, September 10th: ""Smart Tech for Camp & Retreat Leaders: Stay Secure & Connected"

Technology touches nearly every aspect of camp and retreat ministry, from registration systems to staff communication—and with that comes both opportunities and risks. Join us at the next Community Conversation as Sharon Asmus, Chief Information Officer of GCFA, shares practical tips to help you strengthen cybersecurity, safeguard data, and leverage tools that streamline operations. With over 30 years of experience in technology leadership, Sharon brings a wealth of knowledge to equip camp directors and ministry leaders to confidently navigate today’s digital world.  Plan to join this valuable conversation!
