<h3>April 20-21, 2012, Seattle, WA</h3>
<p>Last year the <a href="http://www.inhabitconference.com/">Inhabit Conference</a> “Sold Out!”  Hundreds of parish leaders gathered to celebrate the move toward a more embodied, participatory, and sustainable way of being the church. This incarnational awakening is calling forth important new questions about leadership:  What does leadership look like in the new parish? How might we form collaborative, ecumenical, and holistic practices that knit together justice, relationships of trust, and spiritual vitality?</p>
<p>Ultimately, how can we lead in a way that empowers others to join together on behalf of the reconciliation and renewal of livable places?  Join us for <a href="http://www.inhabitconference.com/">Inhabit 2012</a> as we gather practitioners from across the country to uncover the practicalities of sustainable ministry leadership for the 21st century parish.</p>
<h4>Register today for only $99!</h4>
<p>We’re so excited about the Inhabit Conference this year, we wanted to let a few in early. Hurry, only 100 seats available at this rate!</p>
