Dear friends in Christ,

This Sunday we gather for our annual congregational meeting and I am looking forward to seeing you all there. We have several things we will need to talk about, and we need all hands on deck.

Rodney will present our 2025 budget.

Rev. Lisa will present our new Council Members who are up for election.

The Council will present me as Settled Minister to be voted upon.

I will be presenting our tentative goals for 2025. Here they are again, though they may evolve as time and discussions progress:

• Exploring building affordable housing
• Making and distributing 1000 sack lunches
• Focusing heavily on stewardship, keeping the budget balanced, and fundraising
• Transferring our worship services from Facebook to Zoom.
• Pastor Tracy Installation
• Continuing with employee and council and congregational trainings as necessary in order to comply with insurance requirements
• Wildfire Response
• Recycling Program

I will look forward to seeing you there!

Many blessings,

Pastor Tracy
