Conference Survey Open on District Transition
Two years ago the North Carolina Conference embarked on a new path of district leadership design and deployment.

You are invited to offer your comments and responses in a confidential survey.

Please email reservations for lunch ($5 donation) to Robin Harry at rharry@nccumc.org by Oct. 8.
