Sacred Listening
Scheduling
The CDC Board of Directors and staff invite your congregation to participate in a Sacred Listening conversation during the year 2022. We are curious about how our congregations are tending to the ongoing transformation that God calls us to. We want to hear your stories. We are asking you to choose a Sunday in 2022 when two or three people representing CDC can join you for worship and spend some time with you, listening to your stories.

Emerging Communities
of Faith Grant
Central District Conference is excited to see how the Spirit is moving across our conference as we work at carrying out our mission. We are offering Emerging Communities of Faith grants designed to encourage the growth of emerging communities of faith in our conference. This grant will match money raised at the grassroots level (from the local community) to give the extra financial boost necessary for an emerging community of faith.
