March 20, 2023 – Stated Meeting
- The Grace Session met on March 20 at 6:00 pm. The meeting began in the church alcove with dinner with the confirmation class. After dinner, the Session, confirmands, and staff broke into two rooms for discussion. Before the meeting the confirmands had shared their written faith statements.
- The Session joyfully voted to receive four confirmands into membership upon their making a public profession of faith (and baptism for one). The three making a public profession of faith are Brennan Bean, Colin Buteyn, and Hope Juhnke. Catie Harrison will make a public profession of faith and be baptized. Confirmation Sunday is March 26 at both services.
- The confirmation class left, and the Session moved to the church parlor for the remainder of the meeting. Laurie Haury led a devotional.
- Catherine reviewed the two-year Vital Congregation program that Grace did from 2018-2020. There was a discussion about whether to renew this program.
- Financial reports were given and received. Other reports were given.
- The meeting was closed with the sharing of joys and concerns, and prayer.
