We're excited to report that there are lots of developments happening across the ANiC community these days! Among them are ordinations, new appointments and new congregations joining us. We thought we'd put together a list of some of these to keep us aware of great things the Lord is doing in our midst and to help us all pray for one another.

Here is a list of some of our most recent developments:
