Following the morning service on July 14, 2019, the elders held a Q&A discussion regarding the Onward and Upward proposal, which was shared the week previous. The elders presented a summary of the budgetary revisions decided on to support the proposal, which included significant savings through various category reductions, staff salary cuts including 12% reductions for Tim, Kyle, and Chad, as well as an elder led giving increase (the elders have committed to an additional $16k of personal giving through the end of the year).
The congregation gave feedback and concerns regarding the proposal and in consideration of some of the feedback, a second Q&A and subsequently the vote scheduled for July 21st have been delayed.
The elders are meeting on July 29 (closed meeting) to discuss a new timeline.
Please continue to pray for the process, that it would be filled with love and kindness, as well as wisdom. We also encourage anyone with comments or questions to reach out to Tim, Kyle, or any of the elders for clarification.
