Congregational Meeting and Annual Reports
We’ll be having a congregational meeting on March 2. This is the meeting where we normally accept annual reports and hear Council’s goals for the new year. This year we’ll also hear an update from the search committee. If you haven’t picked up a hard copy of the annual reports (which can be found on the table in the narthex), you can grab them online at http://www.graceucclancaster.org/doc/2013CompleteAnnualReport.pdf See you there.
