"Please join me in welcoming Eric Dawson as our new church treasurer. We are very pleased that Eric has agreed to take on this essential position. Eric & Gladys have been working together to ensure that the change over goes smoothly"
Clark Brander, Chair, Trustees & Finance
Over recent years it has evolved that the treasurer & a few helpers have become responsible for counting collection after church each Sunday. We very much appreciate Gladys’ & her helpers’ dedication in getting the money counted but it is not fair that this task should fall to such a small group.
In order to more fairly spread the work of counting collection among all members of the congregation, a volunteer counters schedule has been posted in the Narthex .
Please sign up & support our new treasurer by taking your turn with counting collection.
Thank you,
Clark Brander, Chair, Trustees & Finance
