7.1. Planning for the election of Church Councillors

Congregation meeting chair.

It is proposed to conduct an election for church councillors on September 2nd. This year there are some current Church Councillors whose terms are expiring. While some may renominate, there will be five vacancies to fill.

As has been the practice in the recent past, it is proposed to allow voting following each worship activity on the designated election Sunday. Details of the procedure will be available on CongregationalPage.

Note from the chair (John Snare)

I will be travelling in August and September. While most of the matters concerning election of Church Councillors can be dealt with remotely, I will not be able to supervise the election. I therefore propose that the congregation appoint another person to supervise the election of Church Councillors on September 2nd. WarrenGreenwood has agreed to make himself available for this task.

Proposed Resolution

The congregation appoints WarrenGreenwood as chair of the congregation for oversight of election of Church Councillors on September 2nd.

8. Benediction
