The Michigan Conference’s Connectional Ministries Team, comprising Laura Witkowski, Kathy Pittenger, Lisa Batten, and Naomi García, has been developing conference-wide offerings that align with the strategic priorities and goals of the Conference Leadership Council. The team’s commitment to the life and mission of Jesus is reflected in the initiatives of Innovation & Incubation, Communities of Belonging, and Faith Formation, all of which are grounded in a foundational relationship with God.

The CM Team aims to create initiatives that generate momentum to meet the priorities of the Michigan Conference and Conference Leadership Council. These initiatives should also resonate with our United Methodist faith communities and leaders, nurturing spiritual growth and belonging.
