2023 Ministerial Search Cottage Meeting Information

Updated Ministerial Cost Projections and Possible Effect on Endowment (Please look especially at the Summary – Scenario 1, 1A Budget, and 1B Endowment documents as those were projections used to determine the amount for the Proposed Motion. The additional projections are assuming zero return and a negative return. In all cases projections are not including any new inputs to the Endowment Fund.)

Congregants joined in to learn where we’re at, what our options are, and what the Board is considering. Meetings were held on June 25, 26 and 30.

Nothing compares to a live presentation and the discussion with fellow congregants that followed, but if you were not able to attend one of the cottage meetings, please view any or all of the information below in order to give input to the Board of Trustees. The Board will be making a decision at the next board meeting, July 19.
