The Southwest Association (SWA) is an Open and Affirming Assocation of the Michigan Conference of the United Church of Christ. Our purpose is to nurture and support the churches and authorized ministers of the Association. We do this through the work of two primary committees: the Association Council and the Church & Ministry Committee. The association is supported by many volunteers and the association minister, as well as the Michigan Conference staff.
Southwest Association Minister: Rev. Calandra Nevenzel
