Join us this summer in Chicago for Better Together 2020! Better Together is Vineyard USA’s biennial Diversity Conference that seeks to thoughtfully discuss race, reconciliation and the multiethnic church. This conference features insightful plenary talks from some of our best thinkers and communicators. You’ll also participate in multicultural worship, led by a diverse group of worship leaders from around the country. You’ll also have an opportunity to attend different workshops that cover a wide range of topics.
The main goals of Better Together are to engage Vineyard pastors and leaders on the issues of race, power, planting multiethnic churches, transitioning current homogenous churches into multiethnic ones and to practically help actualize the Vineyard’s stated value of diversity. Better Together also works hard to create a place of encouragement and affirmation for leaders of color in the Vineyard and a safe place to learn and ask questions for those who are humbly ignorant concerning diversity issues. These conferences have been life-changing and lots of fun. You won’t want to miss it!
