Nine outstanding congregations have been selected by the presidents and staff of the Central East Regional Group to participate in the first cohort of the region's new Threshold Congregation growth program. The Central East Regional Group - CERG – consists of the St. Lawrence, Metro New York, Ohio-Meadville and Joseph Priestley districts.

The staff and leadership of CERG believe that if we want our Association and liberal religion to thrive in the future, our congregations must grow -- in numbers, in spiritual depth, in commitment within, and in outreach.
