(14) Turn, O backsliding children, saith the LORD; for I am married unto you: and I will take you one of a city, and two of a family, and I will bring you to Zion: (15) and I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.

To the Members of the Pacific 7 Jurisdiction 

Grace and peace be unto you.

As we approach our 2026 Jurisdictional Convocation, we do so with gratitude, anticipation, and renewed commitment. This year’s theme, “Transitioning Our Faith into Action,” is more than a declaration—it is a divine call. It challenges us to move beyond confession into demonstration, beyond inspiration into implementation.

This past year has not been without its challenges. Many of us have faced personal trials, ministry pressures, unexpected obstacles, and seasons that stretched our faith. Yet through it all, God has proven faithful. He has sustained us, strengthened us, and brought us through every test. Our continued growth is a testimony of His grace and keeping power.

We are especially grateful for the courageous and sincere leadership of Bishop Ricky Logan. His anointed guidance continues to unite us in vision and purpose, ensuring that every pastor, leader, and member feels connected to the ongoing growth and success of this great jurisdiction.

We have grown—not only in number, but in spirit. As we gather for this convocation, we come unified, expectant, and ready to put our faith into action. God is directing us forward, and the future of the Pacific 7 Jurisdiction is bright.

I look forward to seeing each of you as we celebrate what God has done and embrace what He is yet doing among us.

With great expectation,

Superintendent Samuel W. McCoy
Southern District Superintendent
Pacific 7 Jurisdiction
