SPIRIT OF CHRISTIAN LIFE AWARD
For those special occasions
when your church is celebrating a layperson's outstanding
service to your congregation or youth, the NACCC has created
The Spirit of Christian Life Award. In the
past, congregations have utilized this award to recognize Directors
of Christian Education, dedicated office staff members, Choir & Music
Directors, and church members who have served in various leadership
positions for a number of years. Please contact Ruth at the NA office for
more information: rmahnke@naccc.org |
