The Social Justice and Service Committee (SJSC) asked Council at its last meeting to approved contributions from NLUC to The Glory Hall and to the new youth shelter. Council approved the request subject to Congregational approval at the January 31, 2021, Annual Meeting. Attached is the summary of the action item on the annual meeting agenda, which, but for a small glitch, would have been in the Annual Meeting Packet.
Council asked SJSC to hold a workshop for any members who would like more information. It will occur this Sunday January 24 after the worship service (at about 12:30 pm) on Zoom. Here is the link: https://zoom.us/j/398434443. We look forward to sharing information about the need for each of these contributions, as well as about the financial implications of the contributions. We hope everyone with questions will be able to take part so we are all well-prepared for the Annual Meeting. There are already $30,000 in pledges to support these contributions; the workshop will also give you a chance to consider whether to make a personal contribution in support of one of these important projects.
Peace and Blessings,
Myra Munson on behalf of
Social Justice and Service Committee
