This year we will be emailing a link to an electronic version of the Annual Report. You can expect the Annual Report and supplemental material for the Annual Meeting the week of FEB 7. Printed copies of the Annual Report will also be available for pickup at the back of the sanctuary by WED, FEB 9. 

Printed copies of the Annual Report and its supplemental material will also be mailed to those without email addresses. If you would like us to send you a printed copy, please let us know by filling out the form below and we will be happy to mail it to you!

PLEASE MAIL ME A COPY OF THE ANNUAL REPORT

After many years of consideration, the F&A Committee and the Board of Elders have approved a 2022 budget that does not include funding for the Sunday morning radio broadcast as its costs have escalated significantly in recent years, and we have found other means of serving those in our congregation with this need. The last radio broadcast will air on SUN, FEB 27, 2022. We will take some time at our Annual Meeting on WED, FEB 23 to celebrate and give thanks for the fruitfulness of this incredible ministry. 

For those who are unable to attend in person or worship virtually via livestream, we will be offering an audio option over the phone. We are in the process of contacting those members who have expressed interest in worshiping this way.

If you know of someone who might require this assistance, please email [email protected] and let us know. 

Several of our missionaries will be in town this year and will need temporary housing and vehicles to borrow – starting with Benjamin and Esin B. and their new baby who plan to arrive middle to late March for an extended visit of 6 months to one year. Please contact the Missions Office if you or someone you know might be able to help!

 7:00 PM

A second Town Hall Meeting has been added. This meeting will provide an opportunity for members of the congregation to share ideas, thoughts, questions, concerns, and feedback with our Senior Minister, Mark Booker, our Moderator, David Rix, and other members of the church leadership.

The Town Hall will begin at 7:00 PM and will be capped at a total attendance of 40 people in order to make more dialogue possible. Registration via Realm is required. The event will be hybrid (in-person and via Zoom). Masks will be optional.
