  • Approves committee chairs, charters, and new committees

  • Works with our Minister on issues pertaining to support personnel

  • Commits itself to ethical, businesslike, and lawful conduct, including proper use of authority and appropriate decorum
 Our Board meetings take place in the sanctuary on the
second Monday of each month between 7:00 - 9:30 PM. These agenda-driven meetings include discussions of old and new church-related business. Highlights of the minutes of the meeting appear in the monthly Journey newsletter.

The Minister, church members, and friends are invited to attend Board meetings. Visitors wishing to present information should notify our at least one week prior to the meeting.
