Congregational Meeting 

Session has called a congregational meeting for Sunday, May 27, 2018 immediately following the 9:30 a.m. worship service, to be held in the sanctuary.  This will be a brief congregational meeting to elect a Deacon for the Class of 2021. This position opened up after the annual meeting when one of the Deacon-elect candidates was unable to accept the position.  The Congregational Nominating Committee has met and submitted a candidate who is willing to fill the position.  We recognize that this is meeting is called for Memorial Day Weekend so please make every effort to participate in this meeting so that we can validate quorum and fill this position.
