The CCUIR (Commission on Christian Unity and Inter-religious Relationships) of the Northern Illinois Conference requests a few minutes of your time. In light of our local and global climate, our relationships with our neighbors of other Christian traditions, other faiths, and other religions are important. Please take our survey to help us to better understand the important work our NIC congregations and individuals (both lay and clergy) are already doing. This will also help us to better provide resources and opportunities to further what is already being done, and foster new possibilities. Please complete the survey by clicking the button below.
Thank you so much for your response and your work.
