The 2026 Regional Assembly was held at the Disciples Ministry Center on October 16-17. We gathered to celebrate our regional life in covenantal love and action, through worship, reflection, education, and renewal.

Our theme this year was “Defiant Hope” - Hebrews 10:23-25 (NRSV)

VIDEOS: We invite you to enjoy videos from our worship services and business sessions on our Disciples PSWR YouTube channel.

POST-EVENT SURVEY: Your input is requested in a brief survey about the Regional Assembly, so that it may help us successfully plan the 2027 Regional Gathering and other events in the future. This survey should take only a few minutes.

SPECIAL OFFERING: It is not too late to make a gift to Eastmont Community Center, Project Impact, and All Peoples Community Center.

YOUTH PLAYLIST: The “Defiant Hope” playlist created by our youth can be accessed by clicking here.
