Allegheny East Conference
Story by LaTasha Hewitt
The young people of the Cedars of Lebanon church in Chesapeake, Va., recently put their faith into action through a vibrant community garden. As grocery prices rise and food insecurity becomes an increasing concern for many families, the youth have responded with a practical solution, rooted in biblical principles of stewardship and service.
Gina Brown, an Allegheny East Conference member who served on the Columbia Union Conference Executive Committee for nine years, is leaving her position at Howard University (D.C.) this summer to become president of Oakwood University (Ala.).
At the May executive committee meeting, the Columbia Union officers expressed appreciation for her many years of service on the committee.
This fall, the Allegheny East and Chesapeake conferences will join forces—with support from It is Written, the North American Division and the Columbia Union Conference—to host evangelistic meetings in Baltimore. Prior to the meetings, members and volunteers will be working on projects throughout the area to prepare for the event.
One of those projects is a free medical clinic September 25, 26 and 28. Licensed medical and non-medical volunteers are needed to help share the love of Christ in Baltimore.
