After much conversation with our *cino staff and board members, we’ve made the difficult decision to cancel this year’s Practicing Resurrection conference. We’re generally not very good at failing to follow through on things we’ve said we’d do and we were all really excited about having so many wonderful people all in the same place for a weekend this summer, so we’re making this announcement with exceptionally heavy hearts.
However, exceptionally low registration and a number of other sign posts have pointed us in this regrettable direction. We considered going ahead with things anyway, given the wonderful presenters and the registrants on our list already — just have a big party! But realistically, *cino cannot afford to subsidize the gathering, and we also didn’t want to dishonor what our presenters were bringing to the table by having sparse attendance and not being able to facilitate the kind of conversation we were hoping to have during the conference.
Our hope is that we can regroup and reorganize for another event sometime in the future. Thank you for your understanding.
With regret,
The *culture is not optional staff

The vision for this conference was inspiring to me. My imagination was fired, and I was eager to share imagination of this place with others.
Thanks, *cino folk, Rob and Kirstin, for your hard work. Looking forward to a future date for this theme.
