Grace and Peace in the name of Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!
How exciting a moment in history this is as we enter the second decade of the second century of the Hampton University Minsters Conference. I am pleased to welcome you to Hampton University and to share my excitement for our 111th annual gathering of the conference and the 91st annual gathering of the Choir Directors & Organists Guild Workshop. We are pleased to present a program of annointed preachers and proclaimers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. This year’s full conference agenda of sermons, lectures, workshops, and seminars will take place Sunday through Thursday, June 1-5, 2025. The Communion Service will take place on Monday night before the Conference President’s message with the conference ending on Thursday night after the Choir Guild’s annual concert.
It gives me great pleasure as Executive Director & Treasurer to invite you to register for this year’s gathering as we worship under the theme An Ageless Christ for An Age that Still Needs Christ. We extend warm greetings to Conference President Rev. Dr. Harold A. Carter, Jr.
Finally, on behalf of President Darrell K. Williams, the administration, faculty, and staff of Hampton University, we appreciate your support over the years and look forward to the beautiful years ahead. The time you invest with us will be well spent as we continue to inform your theology, enrich your ministry, and bless your life!
Sincerely and with Gratitude,
