COUNCIL MEETING SUMMARY

May 15, 2025


New Television in Narthex

Old TV did not work and has been off for several years. A new TV was purchased by Chris Statz and David Loos. It is installed and was already used to display photos for a funeral. We are looking forward to sharing a rotating photo display and announcements on this new way to interface with our fellow congregants. Thank you Chris and David! 


Finance

Council would like to thank those that have responded to the request made at the annual meeting to cover our budget deficit. We are making progress and ask for your continued support. 


Outdoor Services

A comment was brought forward to consider reducing outdoor services due to uneven ground. Council discussed options for addressing concerns and acknowledges there are differing opinions. A motion was made and passed to keep this summer’s outdoor service the same and perform a survey this fall to ask the congregation for more feedback on the outdoor services, among other things.
