MINISTERIAL DEVELOPMENT

REMINDERS

2001 Ministers' Convocation
This is just another reminder to keep the dates of April 23-26, 2001 open for the Ministers' Convocation. The theme will be "Peace with God _ Peace with Ourselves." The event will take place at the Center for Development in Ministry at Mundelein, Illinois, as it has for the past few years.

Also Sermon Contest
Also, we would like to remind you about the Division for Ministry sponsored sermon contest on a general topic. Either a minister or lay leader in the church must give the sermon within the dates specified. The dates are from March 14, 2000 through March 15, 2001. The contest deadline is April 1, 2001. Please have your sermon entry in before that time.

WHERE DO MINISTERS COME FROM?
Many come from CFTS. And, where does CFTS find them? "In Your Church." Our Association stands in need of additional clergy. If someone in your church is being led by God into the ministry, please have them contact Phil Jackson, Dean of CFTS. We will all benefit if they do. 1-800-262-1620 pjackson@naccc.org

3 LIBRARIES DONATED TO CFTS
In response to a notice in a prior NA News three retired ministers have made arrangements to donate all or part of their library to our seminary students. To find out more about this program contact Phil Jackson, Dean of CFTS, at 1-800-262-1620 or e-mail, pjackson@naccc.org.
