The Oneida Association churches gathered for our Annual Meeting at the Central Square Community Church United Church of Christ on Sunday, April 26.

It was a great time of worship as we officially welcomed our host church as a member of the United Church of Christ, and as we prayed for all 28 churches of the Association.

Michael Caine, Regional Conference Ministerin the southeastern region of the Conference, led an interactive introduction to "Casting Your Nets on the Other Side", the church growth program of the New York Conference.

We voted in the new By-Laws of the Association, elected new officers, celebrated those churches that contributed to the work of the Wider United Church of Christ through gifts to OCWM (Our Church's Wider Mission), and we enjoyed a sumptuous meal prepared by our hosts.

It was a wonderful day!

Enjoy the slideshow on this page, and take a few moments to read through the new By-Laws.
