Annual Congregational Meeting & Communion | Jan 19 | 6pm

Our Annual Congregational Meeting will take place on Jan 19 at 6pm starting with a time of worship and the Lord's Supper. Attending this meeting is an important way for those in our church family to be informed about the present state of our church and help chart our future. The congregation will vote on several items including the 2025 budget, church officers, a spending proposal, the next Capital Improvement phase, and new missionaries. Please see the Annual Report at the Welcome Center for the full agenda and business items. Non-members are encouraged to attend but only current members age 18 and older are able to vote.
