This past July, fifteen WSC alumni, current and former students led and participated in the Western Church Planter Training Conference for the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA).
The conference was hosted by Rev. Doug Swagerty ('82/'83) and his church, North Coast Presbyterian Church, in Encinitas, CA.
Rev. Alfred Poirier ('83/'84) was the plenary speaker for the conference, giving devotionals on three common struggles of church planters – communing with God, criticism, and conflicts.
Rev. Paul Kim ('00) led a case study seminar on church planting, and Rev. Matt Bohling ('01) led a seminar on church health and revitalization.
We are thankful for the church planting leadership and efforts of Westminster alumni in the PCA and other Presbyterian and Reformed denominations throughout the US!
