Pastor’s Corner:

Following the presentation of the 5 Prescriptions on Sunday, April 29, 2012, we are required to hold 3 Town Hall Meetings within 45 days, for learning and discussion.

All church members are welcome to attend any or all of the Town Hall Meetings. At these Town Hall Meetings you can listen and ask questions. HCI Self Study Guidance Team will guide the discussions.

Following the service and fellowship dinner on June 3, 2012 church members will vote “yes or no” on the 5 prescriptions. If we agree to the 5 prescriptions, the Conference will supply at no cost a certified coach to work with the church and the pastor to help find ways to fulfill the 5 prescriptions. We have 18 months to fulfill the 5 prescriptions with the aid of a coach.
