 Worship
& Music - our current practice of greeting and ‘passing
the peace' at the end of the worship service is going well
but will be evaluated later.
Christian Education - construction of our 4th of July
float is underway. We need a wagon wheel and an old American
flag with 48 stars. Vacation Bible School needs empty 2-liter
plastic pop bottles for one of their projects.
Outreach - a new brochure for local businesses and
the Detroit area churches, advertising our church service
is now available. We are looking at sweat shirts or polo shirts
with the church logo and license plates as a means of advertising
our church.
Deacons - 2 Coins A Meal receipts for May totaled $78.00.
Fellowship - 2 new coffee urns have been purchased.
Stewardship/Finance - statements for general fund giving
and BGV will be sent to everyone by the end of June. YTD Operating
Fund - $7,641; YTD BGV - $17,540. Now that all the "snow
birds" are back, hopefully giving will increase. New
internet service is now installed, so remember to use the
new E-mail addresses. (See elsewhere in this issue.)
Memorial - new plantings have been done and the bronze
plaque has been installed.
Facilities - new energy-efficient low-heat light bulbs
have been installed over the choir. Our AED (Defibrillator)
is being upgraded.
Personnel - the Wednesday "office angels"
were discontinued, per their request.

 The
Facilities Committee would like to extend their thanks and appreciation
to everyone who turned out on May 17th for the Annual Clean-Up
Day. If your name was not included in the June Connections,
this is for YOU! All jobs were accomplished, a tasty lunch was
served, and the fellowship was great! |
