The Voice of St. John in the Wilderness, May 2002

 

 

VESTRY HIGHLIGHTS

 

The Vestry met on Tuesday, April 9, 2002.  Jeanne LeFevre presided.  Lydia Brown announced that she would be staying at our church through the 23rd of June.  That Sunday she will serve her first Eucharist as an ordained priest.  Summer schedules were discussed, as well as the search for a new interim priest.  Efforts are being made to have our Diocesan Fair Share re-evaluated, and a letter concerning pledge shortfalls will be included in the quarterly statements.

 

The following motions were approved by the Vestry:

 

  • The purchase of new computers for Lydia and Alison’s offices.

  • To invest $20,000 from Cemetery funds in a new Certificate of Deposit for the Cemetery.

  • To invest the Altar Guild Certificate of Deposit and the Marge Thein memorial money in a new Certificate of Deposit.

  • To accept a gift from the Boyles of a TV and VCR for the Youth Room.

  • To approve the lawn service contract.

  • To cast our three Diocesan votes for Children, Youth and Christian Education and Formation and to include a statement of dissatisfaction with this process.

  • To support a subcommittee whose purpose will be to develop a plan for the formation of “house groups” – a social event involving dinner at parishioner’s homes.  David Seitz and Therese Branby will head this committee.
