Congregational Meeting – October 22

A congregational meeting has been called for Sunday, October 22, immediately following the Sunday worship service. The purpose is to consider receiving a grant awarded to United Christian Church for developing a full time ministry to students. All members are urged to attend.

The grant  is generous, and the grantor requests anonymity. The grant takes the form of $8,000 per month with the following designations:

• $5,000 for a full time youth minister

• $2,000 for support to the senior pastor to allow for supervision responsibilities

• $1,000 for music support.

The gifts would be for 36 months, a three year time period for developing this ministry. The grantor has apparently visited our church and considers this fellowship capable of bringing quality ministry to the students within our reach. All members and friends are urged to pray guidance. The next step would require formal acceptance of the grant.
