Inform. Inspire. Engage.
The 2025 Santa Barbara Mission Conference
was held on Feb 1, 2025
at the First Presbyterian Church of Santa Barbara
21 E. Constance Avenue, Santa Barbara
Keynote Speaker Tim Soerens helped us discover the church right where we are.
His message was supported by a panel of local practitioners who have been pursuing justice and Jesus for the long haul. They shared spiritual and communal practices that have sustained them, while bringing hope and healing to our community.
Afternoon breakout sessions helped us see the presence of God's church in the midst of addiction, homelessness, isolation, and trafficking. Where might God be inviting you to discover the church, Godโs people, at work in the world?
