National Workshop on Christian Unity

For more than 50 years, the National Workshop on Christian Unity has been gathering each year at a different city throughout the United States to bring together all those involved in the work of Christian Unity.  The Workshop welcomes ecumenical representatives, ecumenists, and interested members from all churches who share one faith, one baptism in Jesus Christ.

The Workshop continues to be the only national gathering of its kind in the world.  The four-day event is designed to equip attendees with ongoing formation with plenaries and seminars, activities in the local host city community, and opportunities to join together in prayer.  It provides a context for fellowship from which friendships can develop, friendships that are the starting place and cornerstone of any work of unity in the Body of Christ. We discover that there is so much more that we share than there are differences which have separated us for far too long.

In 2017 we gather in the Twin Cities at the Hilton Minneapolis.  The hotel is in the heart of downtown and is within walking distance of workshop venues, shops along the Nicollet Street Mall, dozens of restaurants in all price ranges, and many area attractions.  It is an easy light-rail trip directly from the MinneapolisSaint Paul International Airport.
Registration is easier than ever.

Online registration at www.nwcu.org covers all workshop events, including all lunches, the Tuesday evening concert, and the Wednesday evening banquet. If you need to pay by check and register through conventional mail, you can download the registration form from the website and mail it in.

The Workshop registration rate is $300 before April 7th ($325 after the 7th).

If you are also a member of one of the denominational networks that hosts the Workshop, you can pay the network fee along with your workshop registration.  If you are without a network affiliation, there is an additional $35 fee for expenses underwritten by the sponsoring networks.

Room reservations at the Hilton Minneapolis must be made directly with the hotel. The workshop rate of $169 per night is available only until April 7th.
