Annual
Meeting Highlights
-
Interim report from the Joint Needs Assessment Committee –
contact Ken Cox or Jane Field if you would like a copy.
- Update on St. Paul’s Place – progress toward a sale
has been delayed while we gain a greater understanding from Presbytery
of our ability to use the proceeds from such a sale.
- Motions approved at the June congregational meeting on a trial
basis were approved for continuation except that the balcony will
not be closed. New open space at the back of the sanctuary, coffee
before worship and nametags will continue.
- We took a moment to celebrate significant bequests from the estates
of H. Lloyd Brooks and the Schuyler family.
- Budget for 2010 was approved projecting a significant deficit.
Average givings are strong compared to previous years however total
numbers of givers has declined greatly. See the Annual Report page
42 for details.
- David Boyd took on the role of Council Chair.
A more detailed one page summary of the highlights is available
at the Church Office.
Copies of the Annual Report also still available at the church.
