 Budget:

Many thanks to the office for all the hard work on the budget and budget detail.  Budget detail will be given quarterly.  Questions about previous youth funds before Mark came on board.  Mark will follow up.

 Sunday School and Church Classes:

Coordination of communication when changing Sunday school curriculums is needed.  Having lead time will help in promoting upcoming classes.  Concerns that some people will not want to jump into the middle of a class.

 Youth:

Garage sale for raising funds for the mission’s trips was a great success.  Raised over $1000.  Many thanks to those who donated items.  Youth had a wonderful turnout for the Sunrise Service.  Though Salt and Light will be ending, the youth will still be meeting on Wednesday nights starting May 6th. 

 Salt and Light:

April 22 will be the last meeting for Salt and Light.  It will be a great celebration.  Come and join the fun!
