A Cycle Of New Leadership

Rev. Dr. Michael Chittum, Executive Director

The Annual Meeting for the NACCC, whether in person or virtual, is significant for many reasons. One reason that may not be given much thought is the leadership changes that take place. While the NACCC’s structure allows much continuity in leadership, the changes that take place are still significant.

This year, for example, there are 3 new people on the Board of Directors. That is a third of the voting members. On Leadership Council, again, there are 3 people who are new, which is a third of the voting members. These new leaders will have to catch up on a number of issues. As part of the installation service, I remind the delegate body to pray for the elected leadership of the NACCC. This is part of the reason why. Those elected to leadership serve faithfully and for many hours to do the work of the NACCC between Annual Meetings; there are leaders who are just beginning their service. This new cycle of leadership deserves our thanks and our prayers.
