Support For Clergy
We are developing meaningful ways that clergy can stay in touch with one another both formally and informally. Clergy find the NACCC’s On-Line Meetinghouse one resource for connecting and sharing resources.
There are groups within the NACCC who have joined Facebook which deepens existing relationships and helps to forge new ones.
Retired Clergy are remembered by the NACCC through the Retired Minister’s Fund. These funds are made available through Christmas offerings from our NACCC member churches and individuals. Retired clergy periodically gather at the Annual Meeting and Conference.
DFM sponsors Women in Clergy gatherings and periodic Clergy Spouse Retreats.
