A NOTE FROM OUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
|
|
|
|
|
Representatives from the University Relations Office, Church Relations Committee, and Wesley Seminary are getting ready to attend 20 of the 22 Wesleyan District Conferences this summer, underscoring our commitment to fostering connections within The Wesleyan Church community. These visits provide a great opportunity for alumni to reconnect with their alma mater, share their experiences, and learn about the latest developments at IWU. Our presence at these conferences reflects a strategic effort to maintain strong ties with our alumni, pastors, and church leaders.
As we travel from coast to coast, we strive to strengthen relationships, encourage alumni involvement, and promote the university's initiatives. We also gather valuable feedback, which helps to further enhance the university's programs and services. This summer is particularly important as preparations are being made for General Conference, which will be hosted here on campus next May!
We hope that you have a great summer, and we look forward to seeing you at your district conference!
Blessings,
Joel W. Hunt
