2016 Diaconal Summit Videos

Every two years, the OPC’s Committee on Diaconal Ministries hosts a Presbytery Diaconal Summit (PDS), to which each presbytery in the OPC is invited to send two members of its Presbytery Diaconal Committee (PDC).  The summits are designed to help PDC members understand and carry out their important role as the lynch pin in the “Network of Deacons” pictured above.

The following presentations are from PDS III (October 2016).

• “A Vision for Presbytery Diaconal Committees” (Nathan Trice)
• “One Presbytery’s Diaconal Reformation” (Matt Avery)
• Devotional (Nathan Trice)
• “A Translator in Two Directions” (Ron Pearce)
• “Lessons from my History with OPC Disaster Response” (David Nakhla)
• “A PDC Response to a Regional Disaster” (David Nakhla)
• “The Refugee Crisis: An update” (David Nakhla)
