Dear CLC guide, community member and/or community member, national and regional leaders. I am writing to you about the awards that will be presented at our up-coming CLC-USA National Assembly in Pittsburgh, PA, July 18-21, 2019. This is our 26th National Assembly.
Since 1971, at the biennial National Assembly/Convention, National Christian Life Community NCLC (formerly the National Federation of Christian Life Communities NCCLC) has presented awards for outstanding contributions in two categories:
The CLC Development Award is presented to an individual or individuals who have given outstanding service toward the promotion, growth, and /or development of the Christian Life Community.
The Development of Peoples Award, named after the encyclical by Pope Paul VI, has been presented to an individual or individuals considered outstanding in carrying out the principles and ideals of the encyclical.
In keeping with this tradition, we are now asking for our CLC communities to submit nominations for both of these categories. The awards will be presented at the banquet which will be held on Saturday evening at the Assembly. The nomination forms for both awards are included with this letter.
Please submit your nominations by June 30, 2019. Due to time constraints, we are not able to extend the time frame for nominations. Please discuss any nominations within the next few weeks. If you have any questions, please email the Awards committee at [email protected] We look forward to receiving your nominations. Forms may be downloaded by selecting the Award to the left.
The list of all the awardees since 1971 is posted to the left.
Peace and Blessings,
Marie A Schimelfening
Chairperson for the Awards Committee.
