Yesterday was our church's annual meeting. It lasted about 3 hours, during which all sorts of important things were discussed and pondered. Decisions were made, some unanimous, some not, but to our knowledge, no one left angry or upset, which seems a miracle in itself when we know how many differing opinions live among us. :-D
Nearest to mine and Jared's hearts were two things: the vote to install an elder board, which was unanimously approved, (or I should say no one opposed it. I'm not sure if every single person voted yes. Some may have abstained.) and the addition of a budget line for church planting, which was also well-supported.
These are exciting times for our sweet church. In so many ways, we have no idea what we're doing, but God is at work in spite of us, and it's so exciting to see him on the move. Grateful for the small role we get to play in this work.
