Our Ministry Councils are discovering that webinars are an excellent way to conveniently provide information to our churches and ministers. By joining together remotely, a speaker is presented or a topic discussed, much like the traditional workshops of our Annual Meeting and Conference.<\/p>\n

In this past year, we have hosted webinars on Vacation Bible School curriculum, church safety, and church revitalization.\u00a0 These webinars were hosted by Growth Ministry Council and our Director of Programs, Rev. Dr. Gerry Krupp. On November 2, the Mission and Outreach Ministry Council will host a webinar focusing on vetting non-profits and mission groups so that better decisions can be made about contributing resources. You can find more information and sign up for this webinar on the NACCC website.<\/p>\n

Other ideas are being considered for future webinars. Keep your eye on the website, on the NACCC Facebook page, and all monthly newsletters for details, and share your ideas with us.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n

When I became Vice-Moderator, I asked myself the question, \u201cWhat are some of the characteristics that make a strong association\u201d. I immediately thought of the people in the NACCC, then I thought of our Nominating Committee. The Nominating Committee works hard to find individuals to service on the various councils and Boards.<\/span><\/p>\n
