CHHSM Annual Gathering Presentation Materials and Photos Now Online
March 16, 2018 |
The presentation materials and photos from the 2018 Annual Gathering of the United Church of Christ’s Council for Health and Human Service Ministries are now online.
The online materials are in response to overwhelming demand from Gathering participants, who requested the materials for their own use within their ministries.
Online presentation materials include business meeting documents, workshop documents — including Advocacy 101 and the Nollau graduates’ presentations, and the closing worship and Diakonal Minister Consecration. Annual Gathering photos include the worship services, German delegation presentation, Gateway Celebration, workshops and more.

CHHSM Board and Staff are grieved to learn of the death of our friend and colleague, Greg Watson, who died in October 2022. Greg was vice president of operations for Embrace Living Communities, based in Oak Brook, Ill.![]()

Greg was a graduate of CHHSM’s Nollau Leadership Institute, class of 2018-2019, and was consecrated as a Diakonal Minister during our 2019 Annual Gathering in Chicago. In an article about his class in June 2018 — not long after the group’s first retreat — Greg said, “The best part is not only beginning the process of clarifying your calling; but also, understanding and accepting one’s personal strength. Recognition of one’s ‘true' self enables us to serve from a place of wholeness.”![]()

Greg also served on the CHHSM Board of Directors, and was a beloved friend and colleague to many in the CHHSM family. Embrace Living stated on its website, “Greg was an outstanding servant leader for 17 years at Embrace Living Communities. He will be greatly missed.”![]()
