Tied into a growing college, the record enrollment of 1,130 threatens to over-tax buildings, dorms, funding, and faculty.

A disciple is a follower tied together with another disciple. Networking together with the goal of discipleship, The Caring Connection began its first year at NC. Our tie-in is the study and proclaiming of Gods Word-together. A puzzle of pieces all fitted together for one purpose made 1985 at NC a year F it to be Tied. Fit To Be Tied-3
