CCDA 2023
by Mikya Wright, Children Ministry Apprentice
At the beginning of October, myself and Mission Adelante staff went to Cincinnati for the Christian Community Development Association Conference! What a fun yet informative time! There were many diverse speakers who touched on an array of topics, including healing and inclusion within our ministries. We were also able to connect with a lot of different people at the conference. Hopefully the relationships that were formed there will continue to grow outside of the conference! We were also able to connect with organizations that we already partner with here in KC! We had a great dinner with Hope Center and an awesome lunch with Joe Gonzales and Phil Kim from Snack Shack. Not only did we develop relationships with other organizations, but we also got closer as a staff. Being together that much led to some really deep conversations but also funny and lighthearted ones! By the end of the week the relationships internally and externally of Mission Adelante had grown exponentially and still continue to grow!
What an incredible week at CCDA! This experience has not only challenged me to approach our multicultural community with a fresh and different perspective of love and understanding but has also deepened my appreciation for our amazing volunteers. My heart is filled with gratitude for these dedicated individuals who, week after week, generously invest their time and demonstrate unwavering love for our community
