THOSE CITED FOR SERVICE

Lois Heilmann, Rev. Dr. Lloyd Hall, and Rev. Dr. Arthur Rouner were all cited at the annual meeting in Spokane in June for their ded- ication and service to the Assoc- iation and to Congregationalism. How proud we are to recognize them. Look for an article on the meeting in this month's edition of The Congregationalist.

CHRISTIAN LIFE AWARD
For those special occasions when your Church is celebrating a layperson's outstanding service to your Church, the NA has created a "Christian Life Award," and three Churches have asked us to confer it on five different people. Want to know more about it? Call Ruth Mahnke at the NA office (800) 262-1620 Ext: 17 or Email: rmahnke@naccc.org

CREDENTIALS REPORT FROM SPOKANE
440 attended the adult meeting, including 139 delegates, 134 alternates, 162 attendees, and 5 observers. 167 member Churches were represented. Top ten states represented _ WA, MI, CA, WI, MA, OH, IL, IA, MN, and CT. People from 31 states and two foreign countries were present. There were 234 NAPF'ers, 79 HOPE'ers, and 85 PMV'ers (Pilgrim Missions Voyage). While the economy and the distance were factors in lower attendance for adults, the youth and college-age adults remained high.
