Church Council met Monday December 15 at 7PM in the Fellowship Hall of Encanto Community Church. Here are the three things you need to know about that meeting.
1) We had a very fruitful conversation about the presence of previous pastors at memorial services at the church. I will update this post later with the official language of the resolution that Council passed, but the general thrust of it was that previous pastors who have served this congregation may be attendance at memorial services for church members, provided that they inform the current pastor that they are planning on attending. Further, at the request of the family and with the direction of the current pastor, previous pastors who have served the congregation will be allowed to participate in memorial services.
2) Council has agreed to make January 2009 History Month at Encanto Community Church. We have a wonderful plan for a really fun way to tell our story and dive into our own congregational history over the course of the month of January. More details to follow in future newsletter articles, pulpit announcements, and blog posts! But please start collecting any pictures (particularly older pics) that you might have of the church, church events, or church people.
3) The next All Church Work Day will be January 24th.
