DEVELOPMENT OF A COMMITTEE:
Take 43 counties in middle Tennessee, add representatives from the local churches, add resource partners we work directly with and folks interested in Native American culture and tradition.
Our committee is called CONAM for Conference Committee on Native American Ministry. We are committed to working in the local church and the Native community at large. We are charged with resourcing the local church to promote Native American Ministry Sunday, one of our six Special Sunday Offerings on the UMC church calendar. Since we are involved in social, economic, health, and spiritual issues, we try to take part in Native American events throughout the year and also sponsor events.
