Council Recommends Postponing Congregational Elections to 2021
|
This is usually the time of year when we elect new persons to Council and Committees for Our Savior’s. The Council understands the challenges of these days of pandemic and adaptivity. We’re asking for leaders to extend their terms for one more year and for the Nominating Committee to prayerfully discern and identify persons to serve starting with elections in May of 2021. We are very grateful for all our leaders in these demanding days! Remember them all in your prayers.

Your help is needed. Pastoral Intern Deb, Pastor David and several volunteers like John Mickelson have been making calls to friends and members. We are not making hospital visits or going to nursing homes, but we are sharing voicemails, phone conversations and text messages. We are asking folks to be mindful of their neighbors and see if there are ways they may need your help. We can add them to the prayer list too.
