Cancellations and Delays

When we need to cancel or postpone church or church events; we will post on our Facebook page, send an email (with this contact list) and announce on the webpage.
We are unable to change the outgoing phone message remotely at this time.

I am writing to encourage you all to make plans to attend the annual meeting in the Parish Hall following our 10 am service on February 13th.
We will still have our regular Sunday services at 8 am and 10 am.  The agenda for the meeting is roughly as follows;
 
    I.    Opening Prayer
 
    II.    Call to Order / Declaration of Quorum
 
   III.    Recognition of First Time Annual Meeting Attendees
 
  IV.    Review / Approval of 2021 Annual Meeting Minutes
 
    V.    2021 Ministry Reports Reviewed and Received
 
  VI.    2021 Annual Treasurer’s Summary Report
 VII.    Review of 2022 Annual Budget, as approved by vestry February 8, 2022
Information will be presented on our significant and not sustainable deficit and what that may mean for 2023.

VIII.    Recognition of Outgoing Vestry Members
 
   IX.    Election of 2022 Officers/ Vestry Members / Convention Delegates

    X.    Other New Business
 
   XI.    Closing Prayer

We realize Covid continues to impact people’s willingness to attend in-person events. In light of that, Current MA law requires all voting be done in person at the annual meeting, so only those in attendance may vote on the slate. Proxy votes, call-ins, drive-byes will not be allowed. Windows will be open and all are required to wear masks.
  
Yours in Christ,
