From last night’s business meeting discussion the following items were discussed and action is to take place.

[1] The new parking lot was discussed and everyone was in favor of the plan at the discussion meeting. The entire lot will be repaved and sink holes filled. 4 extra light poles will be installed and new landscaping done. This will be voted on this Sunday by the rest of the congregation on a ballot to be collected during some part of the service.

[2]A plan to remodel the children’s area and bring it up to date.

[3] There was a discussion on  upgrading the youth area as well and solutions are being sought by the youth council. These solutions are to be given to the EC and then acted on with monies allotted from the business meeting of March 28th.

There is a long range plan the EC has been working on. The above is phase 1

Phase 2 is for the years 2012-14 which includes a plan for the property as well as other things.

The youth council representatives at the meeting last night agreed to review the project 3 and  plan and provide recommendations for any additions.

As far as the 4+ acres we purchased in 2004  there has been no building on that land because of the high cost of construction, inflated real-estate values, and paying off of our present building. The old house was burned and destroyed because it was not safe and falling apart. Last year it was decided by the council to not pursue a pavilion because there is a brand new one across the street in the county park that we can use anytime we want. We did use it on two occasions for a picnic. In 2008 we had a financial crisis and we put all improvements on hold.

This is our current report for you

As far as searching for a new youth pastor, the church is still going through resumes and has had  several interviews by phone and in person. Please keep us in prayer as we serve in this area.
