Note - this theme material was
continued at the 2006 Fall Board Meeting.
The theme of this March Annual Assembly was:
“Part I: New Horizons for LIC – How do we pull together given what we’re in? In a culture that is less “churched”, what is the role of LIC?”
The Assembly was held on March 6-7, 2006 at the Bishop Tracy Center in Baton Rouge, LA. The Rev. Dr. Craig Gilliam, our consultant, encouraged the attendees to choose and implement their own workshop sessions/ideas as the LIC deals with functioning in the aftermaths of the Hurricanes. Over 50 people attended and many stated how pleased they were with the interactivity of the sessions.
