The CAC has a goal to get one million people to donate $6, which will complete our Restoring Hope Rebuilding Lives Capital Campaign that began in 2012. The goal of the campaign is to better prevent and treat child sexual abuse in Harris County by expanding our educational and prevention programs and providing the much needed physical space for our more than 50 partner agencies. GiveUr6 is centered on the idea that people easily spend $6 on indulgences they do not think twice about, such as buying a latte in the morning or ordering dessert after dinner. GiveUr6 is an opportunity for people to contribute to programs that protect and heal victims of child sexual abuse, a trauma that impacts the entire community and does not discriminate between race, gender or socioeconomic status. We invite you or your organization to join us as we raise money to stop the suffering of child sexual abuse. It is a simple campaign for a serious problem. This campaign is for anyone and everyone who wants to stop child sexual abuse. We can all donate $6. For more information on how you can get involved and help us spread the word, please contact Jill Buja, Director of Development at [email protected] or 713-986-3483.

    Texas Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church 2013 Pre-Conference Journal Dear Member of the Texas Annual Conference, Grace and peace to you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Welcome to the 2013 Texas Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church! Our planning team, staff and elected leaders have been working hard to bring you, what I hope you’ll agree is, our best Annual Conference yet. During our 2012 Annual Conference, delegates voted to adopt the Strategic Assessment Team Report that included a commitment to three focus areas of ministry: cultivate growing, fruitful, missional congregations, form transforming lay and clergy leaders, and invest in the young. Our theme for this year’s conference is Invest in the Young but we will also have presentations on the other two focus areas. You’ll be hearing stories from local churches on how they have “lived into” these focus areas and creatively reached out into their communities to “make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world. Conference will be held this year from May 26 - 29, 2013 at Hilton Americas – Houston, 1600 Lamar St. Houston, Texas 77010. We are very fortunate to present Rev. Kenda Creasy Dean as our keynote speaker. In line with our theme, Invest in the Young, Rev. Dean has extensive experience in ministry to the young including authoring several books on the subject. I am sure you’ll be both enlightened and entertained by her presentations. We are also blessed to have Dr. Jim Bankston of St. Paul’s UMC, Houston preach our Service of Remembrance & Thanksgiving on Monday evening and Rev.
