Homegrown 2025
Digging Deep, Rising Up 
October 2 – 3, 2025
Trinity Avenue Presbyterian
Durham, NC

Reflecting on the wisdom of Esther (Esther 4:14-16) and the Samaritan woman at the well (John 4:39), we will explore how to dig deep into faith, community, and love to rise up against violence, injustice, and prejudice.

Our Vision: We believe hundreds of Christian clergywomen in North Carolina are faithfully and creatively engaging in ministries where they proclaim the Word of God, week after week. In an ecumenical spirit of love and collegiality, we will lift up the voices of local clergywomen (trans/cis) to encourage and inspire; share and learn; and to hone our craft. Together we will hear wonderful preaching from conference attendees and have time for group conversations on the art of proclamation in all its forms. We will pray, worship, and celebrate together.
