The Committee on History & Archives of the Diocese of North Carolina is sponsoring a one-day workshop on Saturday, October 5, at St. Matthew's, located at 210 St. Mary's Road in Hillsborough, from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.  Communities and personalities differ, so even two churches organized in the same time period or located in the same town are never identical. All congregations face the common challenges of preserving their records and giving them some organization, and all need to say something about their congregational origins and development. To register, please contact Lynn Hoke at lynn.hoke@episdionc.org. 
Cost: $10.00/person for lunch, payable the day of the event. For more information, please go to the event page.
