Councils Moderators’ Update: Walking Together in Discernment
We invite you to watch and share this video update from the Moderators of the three presbyteries’ Councils as we continue the prayerful process of discerning what God may be calling us toward together. This video offers a look at where we are in the conversation around potential presbytery unification — sharing progress and encouraging the communities to remain engaged in this important journey.
We know that discernment is best done together, and we are grateful for your prayers, patience, and participation as we seek the Spirit’s guidance in this season.

Tri-Presbyteries Invitation to Conversation: Results
Tri-Presbyteries Invitation to Conversation: Results
We invite you to watch and share this May video update from the Moderators of the three presbyteries’ Councils as we continue the prayerful process of discerning what God may be calling us toward together. This video offers a look at where we are in the conversation around potential presbytery unification — sharing progress and encouraging the communities to remain engaged in this important journey.
Results
For the past five years, our three presbyteries have been living into our connectional nature through shared executive leadership, joint ministry experiences, and collaboration in important areas such as personnel and support for congregational leadership.
Recently, each presbytery has voted to begin a season of intentional prayer and discussion to discern whether God may be leading us toward a new structure: a single, joined presbytery serving Iowa together.
To that end, we have created a video to explain our next steps and how we will discern this journey together. You can access the video in both widescreen and vertical formats as well as embed, download, and share the videos through whatever means will be most useful for you.
