The information in this directory and search function is for the use of NIC churches, related groups, clergy, lay and staff in conducting business and making connections at the conference, district and local church level. Contact information may not be used for solicitation purposes or by outside organizations to share or generate email lists without written consent.

Churches are marked by a pin with a district color code: BLUE - PRAIRIE NORTH, GREEN - PRAIRIE SOUTH, RED - PRAIRIE CENTRAL, YELLOW - LAKE NORTH, PURPLE - LAKE SOUTH. You can select or deselect districts to view by checking or unchecking the box on the left side of the map. To find a church, type the city or a word from the name (like Trinity) in the search box, and you will get a list of churches in the map that have that word. When you click on a pin it will tell you the name of the church at that location, the address of the church, the URL to their website, if available.
