According to the Book of Discipline, the purpose of the Administrative Council is to “provide for planning and implementing a program of nurture, outreach, witness, and resources in the local church. It shall also provide for the administration of its organization and temporal life. It shall envision, plan, implement, and annually evaluate the mission and ministry of the church. The church council shall be amenable to and function as the administrative agency of the charge conference.”
And all of this planning and implementing begins with new faces as church leadership begins new terms each January. It is time to announce the new committees and council that will be taking care of the building, finances, and ministries that help us fulfill our mission.
The Administrative Council consists of Jan Stichling (Chair), Frances Deaton (Missions), Marsha Greenstreet (Congregational Care), Barbara Hoelzel (Treasurer), Marietta Martin (Trustees), Melissa McAlpine (Secretary), Steve Richardson (Pastor), Stoke Wischmeier (Finance), and Joe Wilson (Pastor Parish Relations).
The Board of Trustees consists of Marietta Martin (Chair), Tom DeClue, Stan Fauth, Jim Foster, Robert Nichols, and Tara Richardson. There’s also a meeting of the Trustees. See Marietta’s note.
