President Jay Kennett's Vision for 2008

Last December the Board of Directors met for our first meeting since the election of new members at the Associational Meeting in October.  Our meeting included prayer, orientation to the board, business and a sharing of our hopes and dreams for the Association.  We as a board have committed ourselves to being more available to the churches and to carrying forth the vision of Appreciative Inquiry and the unifying Spirit of God that was felt at our Annual Meeting. Our hopes and dreams reflect this commitment and I would like to share some of those dreams with you. Read Jay's vision for the ENCA.
