Has your congregation considered submitting an overture for the CNH District Convention?
An overture is a formal proposal or request for action submitted to the District Convention. It is used to propose new policies, changes to existing policies, or other important decisions.
How does the process work? Check out our guide From Overture to Action!
Congregations have the privilege of submitting overtures (proposed resolutions) to the District Convention, as do official conferences of the circuit and district. Overtures are due to the district office by Thursday, March 6, 2025, in an editable format (Word document preferred), using Times New Roman 12 pt. (Do not use pdf format. Click here for an Overture template.) Overtures are a very important part of convention business, providing a helpful indicator of what floor committees are needed and how our time is structured during the convention.
