There will be two changes in our charge conference this year. First, there will not be a meal after church as the conference will not begin until 3:30pm. There will be a meal after, however, followed by The Gathering. If you have not yet tried the Gathering service, this would be an excellent night to invite a friend to come meet up with us for the 5:30 supper.
The second change is in focus. We will be spending less time reporting on what has gone on in the last year and taking the time to explore our future. Our DS Rev. Mike Davis will show us a program called Natural Church Development - a program to evaluate our needs and help keep us accountable to reach out in new ways. This is one program we are considering taking on in the coming year, so please come see and learn so you can help with our discernment process.
We will be assembling a booklet of reports to celebrate God's work in our church during the last year. If you have anything to contribute from your committees, small groups or personal ministries, please get them to the church office by November 7th at the latest.
Finally, please come and support our church at this annual charge conference that binds our ministries together.
