In the November 27th, 2023 congregational voters meeting, a motion was made and approved to change the schedule for congregational voters meetings in 2024. The change in schedule was made to give members a better opportunity to attend the voters meetings where there may have been schedule conflicts with other activities outside of St. Paul’s or where the normal congregational voters meeting time of 7PM was a problem for members who cannot drive at night.

The schedule for 2024 congregational voters meetings is as follows:

 

  • Sunday, January 21st after worship service, in the Bethany room/Fellowship Hall
  • Sunday, April 21st after worship service, in the Bethany room /Fellowship Hall
  • Monday, June 24th – 7PM in the Bethany room/Fellowship Hall
  • Sunday, August 18th after worship service, in the Bethany room/Fellowship Hall
  • Monday, November 25th – 7PM in the Bethany room/Fellowship Hall 

There will be a babysitting service available for families with young children who want to attend the Sunday voters meetings that will be held after worship service. Heidi Wildauer has agreed to organize this. If you have interest in using this service or in assisting in providing this service, please contact Heidi.

 

If you have questions regarding the congregational voters meetings or schedules for them, please contact Dave Burcham.

To this truth, brought to light anew by the Wittenberg Reformation, Luther was called to testify before the emperor—and we teach it to each new generation. What a blessing to have our Youth participate in…

The one true God wants…
