I found out yesterday that the vote for the Creative Arts Pastor has been postponed until June 22nd at 9:30am. Again it is important for all members to be there to cast your vote. Below is a copy of the e-mail Earl sent out last night in case you didn’t receive it.
Dear Church Family,
Concerns have been expressed from our congregation that having a congregational meeting at 11:45 a.m. this Sunday would be unfair to the persons who come to our 8:15 worship service because they would be coming to the early worship and possibly Sunday School and then would have to return to the church later for a meeting. This might prevent some from having the opportunity of hearing the presentation and then voting. We do not want any of our members to feel excluded from the voting and so the congregational meeting for this coming Sunday has been postponed until Sunday morning June 22 at 9:30 a.m. in the sanctuary. On that day, a Sunday School teachers meeting had already previously been scheduled so all of the adults and youth were to meet in the sanctuary for Sunday School together.
There will now be a congregational meeting held at 9:30 a.m. in the sanctuary on June 22 instead of having a combined Sunday School class. During that meeting, a presentation will be given for the proposal concerning adding the Pastor of Creative Arts. The presentation and discussion part of the meeting will end at or before 10:05 a.m. so voting by secret ballot can take place at that time. Ballots will also be given to those at the Sunday School teachers’ meeting and to the child care workers who are members. By scheduling the meeting at 9:30 a.m., those members attending the 8:15 service will be able to stay after that service and participate in the voting. Persons who come to the 10:30 services will be able to come early for the meeting at 9:30 a.m. and then to stay for 10:30 worship immediately following the meeting. No one should be inconvienced or excluded. We encourage everyone who is a member to attend the meeting on June 22 and to participate in the voting.
So, just to recap.
The congregational meeting this Sunday June 8 is postponed until June 22 during the Sunday School hour. On June 22 promptly at 9:30 a.m., an informational meeting about the new Pastor of Creative Arts position will be held with discussion ending at or before 10:05 a.m. and then a vote by secret ballot will be taken.
