The largest annual gathering of faith-based folks interested in justice and community is the Christian Community Development Association (CCDA) Conference. Held every year in a different city, the 2010 Conference is here in Chicago at the Sheraton Hotel from Tuesday, September 7th until Saturday September 11.

Some of you are already going to the conference as part of a class led by Dr. Mary Nelson, one of the leaders of the CCDA. But there is still time to register for single day passes, or to go to the whole conference as a student. See the conference website for details.

Insider’s hint: The large evening plenary sessions—the ones that begin at 7 PM and feature big name folks in the field—are free to the public. You can show up at the Sheraton and attend the plenaries.
