Pastor Search Committee
The church voted last week at the special Church Conference to set the definition of Church Staff to full-time employees. You may turn in your nomination card at the Welcome Desk on Sunday or in the Church Office during the week.
Budget Schedule
The budget for the 2025-26 fiscal year is nearly complete. It will be presented to the Deacons tomorrow evening and then be presented to the church in two week (August 24) at the Church Conference. At that meeting there will be discussion, but no vote. The Church will vote two weeks later following the morning worship services on September 7.
