An Uplifting Church Conference!

Our annual Church Conference took place on Sunday, November 21 after worship, with a beautiful luncheon prepared for us as well. This is the annual all-church meeting, with Rev. Mike Davis, District Superintendent presiding. The meeting began with a slide show reminding us of how Peoples has been active in ministry this year, followed by voting on issues such as approving lay speakers and pastoral compensation, receiving bequests, etc., as well as a video presentation by Bishop Weaver followed by table discussion on ideas for continuing to make disciples of Jesus Christ through outreach in our community and how we could partner with sister churches in this outreach.
    Mike also commended our work as a church in paying off a significant portion of our mission shares this year and appreciates the many ways we are working as a church to be more faithful stewards of our resources as well as more joyful givers.
    We were honored to have Mike serve as our guest preacher that morning as well. He gave us a challenging message on what it means in today's world to "make disciples of all nations."
    The minutes of the meeting are available from Betsy Morrison who served as our Financial Secretary, or you can view the Draft Church Conference Minutes at this link, which will be reviewed during the December Church Council meeting. Thank you all who attended!
