Faith Enrichment Conference

Faith Enrichment Conference

February 23rd – 24th, 2024

Worth the Risk
In the last three years everything we have known about gathering has turned upside down. We went from a society that always met in person to a society familiar with terms like “lock-down,” “hybrid church,” and “social distancing.” The way that we understand being community, building relationships, and being the church has changed.

So what now? Now it is time to come together and to ask ourselves- what have the last three years taught us about being the church? How can we recommit ourselves to the sacredness found in coming together? How can speak with conviction, take risks, and get creative?

There is deep wisdom in scripture, stories and in personal experience that we can draw from, so come. Say yes. Risk and dream together. We have work to do.

Join us in welcoming Rev. Sarah Are Speed as the 2024 Faith Enrichment Keynote!

Sarah Are Speed (she/her/hers) is an ordained Presbyterian pastor in the PC(USA), a coffee-lover, and an optimist. She graduated from Virginia Commonwealth University with a degree in Social Work, and holds a Master of Divinity degree from Columbia Theological Seminary. Sarah currently serves at Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church in New York City as the Associate Pastor for Young Adults and Membership. She also serves as one of the founding creators and contributors to A Sanctified Art. When she’s not running to catch the subway or leading a young adult events, Sarah is often re-microwaving her coffee, reading in her favorite blue chair, writing poetry, or cooking dinner with her husband, Ryan.

When asked about the Faith Leadership Conference, she shared “I cannot wait to gather with the faithful folks of Savannah Presbytery. We need more spaces to dream together, to hope together, to imagine the future of the church together. That is what this conference is offering, and I am thrilled to join in that good and faithful work. Counting down until next February. I look forward to meeting you all!”
