Winter Gathering

P

Sunday, March 3 | Gosnell Hall | 10:10a.m. lease plan on attending the Winter Gathering to be updated on the many ongoing activities and our plans for the future. Due to the brevity of time, three primary areas will be addressed.

Our Treasurer Len Briley will brief us on the financial health of our parish. He will also address the results of our Stewardship Campaign. Jeff Rochelle will bring us up to date on the Renew Campaign as well as any remaining items to be addressed in the completing of the renovation of the sanctuary and grounds. I will address the upcoming changes and our plans in regard to The Rev. Chalk’s retirement. Bishop Lillibridge will meet with our Vestry prior to the Parish Meeting and will go over the procedures and potential time frame of the search process. I will also meet with our new Interim Rector, The Rev. Ned Bowersox at that time and I will pass along to you all that I have learned about the process. I think back to this time last year when the focus of our attention was on the upcoming renovations to our sanctuary and how we would deal with being out of the sanctuary for 9 months. I think that we grew as church family during that time and became a stronger parish. As we face this new time of uncertainty I hope that we can see it also as an opportunity for greater growth both individually and collectively. I hope to see you at the Winter Gathering and I will be more than willing to answer any questions that you may have. Sincerely, Tom McGehee 2013 Senior Warden
