CALLING ALL DELEGATES TO THE 2024 ANNUAL MEETING AND 60TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION OF THE ILLINOIS SOUTH CONFERENCE

Please share this request with your church's pastor and governing board as soon as possible to meet the Monday, July 29 deadline.

Each local church in the Illinois South Conference (according to our Bylaws, Article II: Section 1: Lay Delegates) is entitled to equal lay representation at the Annual Meeting. Your church can appoint and send up to three voting delegates.

In addition, the authorized clergy of the United Church of Christ (including active, retired, privilege of call, or dual standing) in your congregation who are in good standing in the Illinois South Conference also have voting privileges.

As we prepare for our 2024 Annual Meeting of the Illinois South Conference on Saturday, October 19, at Evangelical UCC, 2520 Poplar Street, Highland, Illinois 62249, we want to make sure your church is fully included. We need the contact information for all your voting delegates (3 lay and all UCC clergy) by noon on Monday, July 29.

Please send Julie Riechmann: The full name, email address, and phone number of all your voting delegates to jriechmann@iscucc.org.

Your church will begin to receive registration forms for your delegates and other Annual Meeting materials in mid-July. So, stay tuned. We look forward to hearing from you about how your church will participate in this special day.
