His face and name are on our license plates, but what does it mean to be United Methodists living in the "Land of Lincoln"?
Join the NIC CORR Pilgrimage Committee for a three-day, two-night tour through Illinois, where we will embark on a spiritual pilgrimage that confronts the deep-seated ironies of Illinois history.

Additional details will be forthcoming.
