Northern California Ecumenical Council.

Organizational History

In January 1913, delegates met in San Francisco and organized the California Church Federation, re-named the California Church Council in 1937. The difficulty of California's geography brought the organization to split in 1942 forming the separate Southern California Council of Churches and the Northern California-Nevada Council of Churches . The name changed over the years to the Northern California-Western Nevada Council of Churches, then the Northern California Council of Churches . In 1972, it reorganized and was renamed the Northern California Ecumenical Council . In 2000 came another reorganization and name change to the Northern California Interreligious Conference .
