The Governance Committee held two congregational meetings, one in February and one in March, to discuss the proposed changes to the bylaws with the membership. They also held a meeting with the Leadership Council, which consists of the heads of all the standing committees of the church. After much discussion and feedback, the Governance Committee made a few changes to the proposed bylaws. Most of the changes were grammatical or did not significantly change the original proposal. We very much appreciate the efforts of all of you who took time to read and understand our intentions.
On the menu bar to the right of this posting you'll see a list of pages. Click on the Proposed Bylaws page to see the document that the congregation will be voting on April 1, 2012. Underneath that is the Current Bylaws page, and underneath that is a comparison chart of the old and new which enables you to see where changes have been made and why.
We look forward to seeing you on April 1, 2012, directly after the service at our congregational meeting to help us approve these changes with your vote.
