2021 CHHSM 83rd Annual Gathering

Together We Create a Just, Caring and Compassionate World

Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.

Hebrews 11:1

The 2021 CHHSM 83^rd Annual Gathering will be held virtually March 2-4^th, 2021.

Our theme is Together in Hope. In the face of loss and violence as a result of the two pandemics that have so deeply affected our nation this year—Covid-19 and systemic racism—we are all in need of hope. Together we will look for ways to renew our hope and offer signs of hope to others.

Here are some important dates:

Workshop Proposal Deadline—10/30/2020—Submission guidelines and form
Workshop Selection Finalized—11/20/2020
Workshop Videos/Materials Due—1/8/2021
Registration Open—1/15/2021
2021 CHHSM 83^rd Annual Gathering—3/2/2021-3/4/2021

Even though our meeting will be virtual and we will not be physically together, we still really can be Together in Hope! The Annual Gathering Task Force is working hard to make the Annual Gathering the best virtual meeting possible! Look for emails and check this page for updates.

Our focus on “Justice and Grace—Together” has helped sustain us through this challenging year. Here are some photos and presentations to help you remember this powerful experience:
