Note from the Pastor
Based on the ballots received via mail to vote in the December 2020 congregational meeting, all business items have passed unanimously electing new Elders, Diaconate and Trustees; establishing and electing the Leadership Council and passing the 2021 Operating budget. With all that passed, we have lots of work to do.
- The Elders are meeting for the first time this year to talk about a covenant to be made with the church for fulfilling their call as Elders. Brenda Staggs and Marie Lancaster have agreed to serve as co-chairs of the Elders.
- The Diaconate will be meeting to organize their group and talk about how to fulfill their calling to serve as we move from pandemic to whatever the future may hold.
- The Leadership Council has scheduled their first meeting. As stated in the proposal, these meetings are open to all. The meeting information is listed below with other upcoming meetings.
Please pray for our church and our leaders as we move forward in our mission and ministry.

Seeing the Face of God in Each Other
Seeing the Face of God in Each Other is an online conversation about race, racism, and reconciliation. We look forward to the day we can hold these conversations in person, but until then we are delighted to offer this online. This fulfills the Committee on Ministry requirement for clergy pro-reconciliation, anti-racism training.
The conversations take place over the course of two days, meeting each day from 9:00 a.m. until noon, Eastern time. Seating for each conversation is limited to 22, so choose your date and use the Register link to register and pay online.
