Thank you so much for showing up for our special congregational meeting this weekend. We had a wonderful turn out and a lot of really great discussion happening in our church. I am grateful for the leadership of our Vision Board and for all of you.

I am excited about what God is up to at Grace and how God is leading us forward.

The results are as follows:

Grace voted enthusiastically in favor of tithing from the sale of the land. 140 in favor, 13 opposed and 2 abstained.

The decision on how much to tithe was a lot closer. 73 people voted in favor of sharing $97.000 and 77 people voted in favor of sharing $73,000. We also had 7 people abstain from voting.

Based on these results we will be tithing on our profits and sharing $73,000. Please stay tuned for decisions about who we will share with. Thank you for your generosity!

Finally, Grace also voted in favor of moving forward with the building project 150 people voted yes! We had 4 no votes and 3 who abstained from voting.

Thank you again!

Pastor Joanna Mitchell
