2008 Conference Leaders Convocation

The 2008 Kentucky Annual Conference Leaders Convocation was held Saturday, October 18 at the Frankfort Convention Center.  This quadrennial event is to install leaders that were voted upon and elected at that year's annual conference. These persons will serve on committees and teams of the Annual Conference during the 2009-2012 quadrennium.  Bishop Davis spoke of his vision for the conference and for the leaders who were being installed.  He encouraged them to remain "rooted in love." Following the service, teams held organizational meetings.
