Elder Minutes For 30 April 2012



PRESENT: Frank St. John, George Cope, Dave Tinker, George Joseph, Wray Petry, Jim Norman
ABSENT: Jack Norman, Doug Joseph

Pastor Jack Cain, Pastor J Johnston, Debbie Carey, and Jonathan Cashman joined the Elders to pray for the needs of the church.

The pastors exited at 4:40PM

Administrator’s Report:

  • Debbie gave an update on the master signage plan.
  • There is an issue with the main lighting board in the House.  Since it cannot be fixed locally, it will have to be sent out of state for repairs. A temporary replacement has been assembled.

Frank St. John mentioned that Calvary’s Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws are being updated. In the current document, the words "board" and "elders" are both used to denote the same body.

The Elders discussed the idea of the Finance Council being more proactive in providing oversight to the financial affairs of the church.  The group was positive about the suggestion but would like specific details as to how that oversight would work.

The Elders discussed a ninety-day evaluation for both the Haitian and Russian Churches.  Because they are doing well, it was determined that both of these ministries be allowed to continue to use Calvary's facilities.

Vision for a Family Life ministry at Calvary was discussed.

A discussion was held concerning how many training kits should be purchased for the upcoming Financial Peace University Course.

The meeting was adjourned at 7:00 PM.
