The 2012 conference will include the election of the new NCCL Officers.
NCCL has long held the belief that "God offers his grace to all" (NDC, n. 42E, p. 167). "'Christ lives in me' is the singular confession of the Christian who has been led by God's grace and who trusts that true life comes only through the redemptive sacrifice of Jesus Christ."(NDC, n. 46, p. 184).

The theme for this year's 76th annual conference and exposition Embrace Grace is an imperative call to embrace all of life for all of life is a gift from God. To adopt the ways of Christ and become a disciple is to
freely adopt a way of life that is full of God.  "Grace conforms the Christian to Christ. It enables us to give
ourselves freely in response." (NDC, n. 42A, p. 163).

As you rush to the sun in southern California and San Diego in particular, please know that the program for this conference and exposition is designed to shatter the darkness, to destroy despair and to allow the grace and blessings of the Easter season to encompass you in the radiance and joy of the One who Lives! Come join us as we Embrace Grace and Live in that Grace!  ¡Vive le Gracia!
