Three Things from the Diaconate

The Deacons met on Sunday May 17, 2009 immediately following worship. Here are the three things you need to know from that meeting:

1) We discussed recent Conference-wide events (including the Annual Meeting and the Church Growth and Revitalization Listening Session) with the church members who participated. They were very good events that opened people's eyes to the excitement in the Conference and the resources that are available to the church. There was a broad consensus that we would like to participate in these kinds of events in the future and a particular hope that more folks from the church will take part.

2) As the choir takes their annual summer hiatus we discussed the changes in the weekly Order of Service, including arrangements for Special Music and the customary approach to the Summer Hymn Sing. Start thinking about your favorite hymns now and be ready to request them!

3) In housekeeping news: The newly elected Deacons will be invited to their first meeting of the Diaconate starting next month. Then in July we will hold elections for Officers of the Diaconate.
