We are excited to welcome Dr. Ashley Boggan as our 2026 Coen Conference speaker. Ashley is an author, laywoman, and the General Secretary of the General Commission on Archives and History. In this role, she ensures that The UMC understands its past in order to envision a more equitable future for all Methodists. Her most recent books are Wesleyan Vile-tality: Reclaiming the Heart of Methodist Identity (2025) and Calling on Fire: Reclaiming the Method of Methodism (2025).
Dr. Boggan will preach on Sunday morning, February 1, in our worship service and then lead a session in the afternoon entitled “Our Past Inspiring Our Future: Reclaiming Methodist Identity and Method”. She is an engaging, exciting, and fresh voice for the church today, and especially for the future of the UMC. You won't want to miss it!
The Coen Conference is made possible by the generosity of Art and Judy Coen.
Registrations for this event will be up soon, but there will be no cost. Stay tuned for more information!
