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. It is a journey that moves beyond simply venerating the state's most famous son to acknowledging how the state's celebrated image stands in contrast to its racial history. United Methodists are invited to intentionally engage in Illinois’ complex past, both revered and reviled, recognizing that genuine reconciliation and healing require an honest reckoning.
With such reckoning, the church, as the body of Christ in the world can love boldly, serve joyfully, and lead courageously in advancing justice, equity, and compassion within our local community and beyond.
Additional details will be forthcoming.
