Administration Ministry Team
Minutes for meeting of August 10, 2010
·
Discussion of networking church computers:
No progress to report. Norm
requested that efforts be made to get Linda and Michelle on the same PowerChurch
files for purposes of better managing the shepherding program.
Carl will follow up.
·
Seeking cost savings on church insurance:
Carl will have more later; he recommends not changing insurance unless it
is to the church’s benefit. Norm
recommended looking at Colorado Casualty; Sonoma Springs Presbyterian switched
to this and saw considerable savings.
·
Request from Music and Worship to repair organ:
There was a request from M&W to have about $8000 in repairs done to the
church organ before the next tuning.
This is unbudgeted.
Because of the importance of the organ
in worship at our Church, the Administration Team unanimously recommends to
Session that repairs to the organ not to exceed $__________ be authorized.
If this results in the budget going into the “red” at year’s end, there
is the possibility of using some of the Wells Fargo stock that the church has to
cover any budget shortfall relating to this repair.
·
Building use request:
Gena Breck requested use of the church for one of the monthly gatherings
for the “Walk to Emmaus” group on November 13, 2010.
Gena briefly joined the meeting to explain this group and that various
churches throughout the community host this monthly gathering.
The Admin Team concurred that this request was consistent with the
outreach mission of the church and approved the request with no fees.
Gena provided assurances that the group would clean up after the
gathering.
·
Other new Business:
·
Norm inquired about the status of getting a church credit card that is not under
his name. Carl will follow up.
·
Stewardship Sunday will be November 14, 2010.
This would normally be Communicant Sunday, but that will be delayed a
week.
·
Joan and Carl will be making a contact with one church member who may take the
lead on this year’s stewardship drive.
