The annual convention of the Religion Communicators Council provides attendees a wealth of information to enhance their professional skills and pick up new ones.

You can explore some of our past conventions and read summaries of our many workshops and plenaries, as well as recaps of the DeRose-Hinkhouse and Wilbur award winners, the RCC annual business meeting, and more.

2021

Opening New Portals, Building Community is designed to help communicators—reporters, editors, publishers, writers, marketers, freelancers, videographers, photographers, graphic designers and more—who work for the religious and mainstream media, denominations, religious and other organizations and non-profits and others to be supported and encouraged as people of faith and to network and develop and improve their skills.

In addition to plenary speakers, panels and workshops, it will include the business meetings and award ceremonies for the Associated Church Press, Religion Communicators Council and the Canadian Christian Communicators Association.

2019

When we consider the time in which we live, as religion communicators and journalists too often we see situations and experiences in the same old ways. During our 2019 RCC-ACP Convention, we strove to see in new ways with new possibilities and perceptions to reach existing and new audiences with a refreshing message of truth, justice, freedom, and hope.

2017

The three-day event, “Virtually Here, There and Everywhere: Faith Communications and Presence,” was a multi-faith forum designed to enrich, engage, educate and empower professional communicators of religion and faith-based issues.

2015

The Religion Communications Council met in Alexandria, Virginia, to explore the theme “Faith-based Communications: Connecting Locally, Reaching Globally.”
