6:15pm – Jones Hall
Visitor: Dick Dale
Minutes approved as read. Martha Mitchell will take minutes
for this meeting. Derek Merchant will take minutes for minutes starting with the
Nov, 2010 minutes.
Presentation from church website committee (Dick Dale):
Drafts of front page of church website distributed. Contributions from committee
on content for the Christian Education page were requested. Draft is located at
http://firspreslc.org/burr . Can provide feedback to
rhdale@comcast.net by Oct 28.
Budget for Christian Education and Salt and Light were
reviewed. Question regarding advertising line item has been resolved. Lent
materials line item needs to be moved to Advent. There needs to be a line item
on the Salt and Light transaction report for fall tuition. Would be very helpful
to show monthly carryover, not simply monthly transactions (i.e. what is
available to spend) on reports. For next year need to consider including budget
items for background checks and Safe Sanctuaries training.
Kristine Lambert provided a report of the first 5 nights of
Salt and Light. She has started preparing a monthly newsletter for distribution
to the parents. Nine new students have been attending. She is working on
aligning the theme of the curriculum with the dinner theme. There are concerns
about overcrowding for some of the classes. She is working on a better way to
reconcile class head counts with dinner counts (more at dinner than currently
can be accounted for by students, table parents and kitchen crews).
Susan Grandle is continuing to staff elementary Sunday
School teachers. Adult Sunday school is continuing with Blaine Goss and
Dick Dale.
Mark submitted a calendar for the year for youth events.
The youth will be serving refreshments for the Millers’ 5oth anniversary after
church Oct 17th. Oct. 16th is the youth garage sale. Oct
31st is Trunk or Treat. For November, planning a church clean-up day
on Nov 13th. Nov 14 the youth would like to have a youth team sale, which Mark
will coordinate, during the Thanksgiving dinner at church. Nov 19-21 the youth
plan to go to the Presbyterian Youth Retreat at Fort Lone Tree in Capitan. Mark
attended the National Youth Workers Convention in San Diego last weekend.
Bibles were distributed in church on September 26th.
Three bibles are yet to be picked up (they are in Kristine’s office) and there
is one bible with a blank nameplate. CE signup for continues support with
cleaning the Children’s Garden rooms after Sunday Services.
Advent devotionals will be handed out at Salt and Light on
Nov 17, and will be handed out during the worship service beginning Nov 21. An
item needs to be written for the Good News about the Advent Devotionals.
