Consistory Corner – June 15th, 2010
Our regular consistory meeting was held on Tuesday, June 15th. A considerable amount of time was spent on preparing the congregational meeting of June 27th. Unfortunately, preparations weren’t completed and a follow-up meeting of consistory occurred on June 22nd.
Pastor Susan reported the latest from the Building Vision Group.
Standing committees the reports were read and highlighted where necessary.
The Finance committee brought forward three recommendations, all of which were passed:
- Permission be given to pursue having an audit done of the church finances. Having this audit done will help us later when applying for additional grants.
- $15,000 to be withdrawn from the endowment fund to cover anticipated expenses.
- To accept the treasurer’s report and the balance sheet.
The Invitation & Outreach committee brought forward the following recommendation:
- To do health clinics four times a year provided by St. Peter’s Hospital.
The recommendation passed.
The Building Usage committee had three recommendations, all of which were passed:
- To use John Clark as the developer for the project.
- To accept the contract with the 7th Day Adventist to use our space.
- To suggest a negotiation price range for Susan to use with NJ Bible Presbyterian Church for usageof sanctuary, Fellowship Hall, kitchen and nursery.
At the Jun 22th meeting, it was reported that the church had received the first reimbursement check from the NJ Historic Trust in the amount of $91,000.
The preparations for the congregational meeting were completed.
