Topic: Council History
Type: Report

The history of the North Carolina Council of Churches is the story of persons, religious leaders struggling to respond in faith to the signs of their times. Sometimes the signs could be clearly read; at other times they had to be discerned through a glass darkly.  The records show that the leaders would prefer to be measured in terms of the fullheartedness of their responses rather than the accuracy of their discernment, in terms of their deeds rather than their words.

This document outlines the first fifty years of the Council’s work in North Carolina.

–Sister Evelyn Mattern, May 1985
