Special Business Meeting (10/20):
Immediately following the Worship Service, both members and non-members are invited to remain in the auditorium for this meeting. The primary focus of the Special Business meeting will be to pray as God’s family, corporately seeking the Lords will, and then vote to “Call” Pastor Michael Davis as Senior Pastor.
A table will be set up to distribute voting ballots to church members. Ballots will be distributed only to church members; your name will be checked against the church’s membership list. This process must be followed to maintain the integrity of the vote. The membership list is being displayed on the TV screens in the church’s foyer (aka lobby). If you believe you are a member of the church and have the right to vote, please ensure you check that your name is on the membership list before the meeting. Please contact an Elder or a Pastor with any questions or concerns.
Please Ask Questions Now:
The Pastor Search Committee (PSC) openly invites you to submit your questions through the Online Question Portal. A member or members of the committee will do their best to respond to you in a timely manner.​​ We encourage you to ask questions now and through the candidate weekend.

2) There are QR codes placed throughout the church building to the PSC Question Portal, please simply scan those with your mobile device.

We are praying that the Lord prepares you before the special business meeting to vote according to His will.
