August Board of Directors Meeting: The August meeting of the Board of Directors is August 19th at 1PM. Everyone is invited to attend and observe this meeting.
Meeting of Spiritual Education Group: This Wednesday, August 1st, the Wednesday Night Bible Study Group will be meeting at 6:30 in the Fellowship Hall to discuss the DVD series, "Lost Christianities." Linda Hull will be facilitating this discussion, and everyone is welcome to attend!
Congregational Forum: Saturday, we welcomed the Elder serving our Region, Rev. Elder Darlene Garner. The Elder was the moderator for the Congregational Forum held at that time. During this forum the congregation discussed issues surrounding "what happens next," following the departure of Pastor Danny. While there were no votes scheduled for this meeting, it was important for members of MCC of CC to attend this forum to ask questions and offer input regarding the future direction of the church. Anyone who missed the forum should see a member of the BOD for more details regarding the meeting.
