Council Highlights | June 2024

On Monday, June 17, the Church Council unanimously approved the amended Ministry Site Profile (MSP) and the Seven Reflections document submitted to them by the Call Committee.  The Chair of the Call Committee was notified of the vote so that they can proceed with next steps.

Reports were received from the Treasurer, Child Development Center, Worship Ministry, Learning Ministry, Witness Ministry and Support Ministry.  Special thanks to Terry Porter for navigating the challenges with the Sanctuary HVAC system. Margaret Bruesch responded to Heidi Goebel’s concerns in the property report related to budget details.  President Woody suggested that Heidi Goebel and Allen Jensen, Treasurer, would benefit from a conversation about that.  President Woody informed the Council that insurance costs will likely go up since that is a current trend.  

A check-in review for Dawn Wetzel, newly hired church office administrator, will happen Tuesday 6-18-24, per a condition of her employment. 

A ‘God’s Work/Our Hands’ activity is being considered for Sunday, September 8, 2024. This is an ELCA service project initiative in which congregations take efforts to support their local communities.  Many ELCA congregations across the country will be engaged in the ‘God’s Work/Our Hands’ event on this, the 10th anniversary of the event.

Next Council Meeting will be July 15.

Respectfully submitted,

Nancy Baden
