Holy Conversations is an intentional focus within the Cumberland Presbyterian Church to highlight God’s call to serve as a Minister of Word and Sacrament. It is a call to ordained ministry – whether as the pastor of a church, a chaplain, a minister in youth/family/education ministries, or wherever the Holy Conversations call you.

Holy Conversations is also an intentional focus within the Cumberland Presbyterian Church for EVERYONE to pray that God will raise up ministers to serve, to recognize gifts for ministry in a person’s life, and to initiate conversations with that person about God’s call to ordained ministry.

This Holy Conversation webpage will host many resources to help churches, presbyteries, and individual members to have those important conversations. The 192nd General Assembly has named 2024 as “The Year of God’s Call” and the third Sunday in January as a time set aside to pray that God will call people into ordained ministry AND that people will listen and discern God’s call in their life,
