Hi ,
It’s been about a month since we had our Annual Assembly in Birmingham and things have been fairly quiet, at least on the surface. Our new Officers and Chairs are getting acclimated to their roles and are starting their monthly committee meetings via Zoom. In addition, the Officers will resume our monthly Zoom meetings in a couple of weeks as we discuss various issues impacting the ministry. We all know that very few weekends are held during the summer months, but most communities are busy gearing up for the Fall season.
A couple things to keep you apprised of:
- NOTICE OF A SPECIAL ELECTION HAS BEEN SENT TO ALL COMMUNITY LEADERS: Because of some last minute changes in availability, several officers (Executive VP, Secretary and Treasurer) and a Secretariat Member were appointed for one year terms as permitted by the By-Laws. The purpose of the Special Election will be to enable them to serve full terms. Please remind your community’s leaders to send in the Proxy Votes once they are approved by your Secretariat.
- TWO NEW POLICY DOCUMENTS WERE APPROVED AT THE SECRETARIAT MEETING and are presented here for your review::
- A Position Paper that clarifies the FORMAL BEGINNING AND END OF THE WEEKEND PHASE (CLICK HERE)
- A revised Best Practice document to QUALIFY PESCADORES TO SERVE AS SPIRITUAL DIRECTORS (CLICK HERE)
Keep in mind that ALL of our Policy Committee documents are available on the website.
