Separating Church and Hate Since 1935

Aleta Payne, Former Deputy Executive Director · November 9, 2016 · Leave a Comment

We work toward a church that is all-loving.

That’s what we’ve always done and that’s what we’re going to keep doing.

Stay connected with the Council to learn about opportunities to welcome our immigrant sisters and brothers, care for creation, work for economic justice and voting rights, build toward Christian unity and interfaith understanding, teach our church-goers how to be healthier, and do all that we can to help everyone live into the beloved community.

Please pray with us and work with us to be sure that all beloved children of God are welcomed, valued, and respected.

About Aleta Payne, Former Deputy Executive Director

Aleta Payne first joined the Council staff in the spring of 2001 as the Communications Associate. She continues to oversee that work along with development, represents the Council in several partnership efforts, and serves in other administrative roles, as well. Aleta is a graduate of the University of Virginia with a degree in government and foreign affairs and spent much of her early career as a journalist. She has three young adult sons who continue to come home to Cary for dinner, or at least groceries, and two young adult terrier-mix dogs who keep the nest from feeling too empty.
