Pastoral Council and Trustee Updates
In June the Pastoral Council discerned two new members to begin a three-year term of service. Three people went through the discernment process, and Adam Olig and Jeff Olson emerged as the new Council members. Thanks to all the nominees, Mike Crain, and Council members who were there to help pray and answer questions for the new members. Congratulations to Adam and Jeff!
Thanks to Craig Tautges and Lisa Nimmer who have completed their terms on Pastoral Council. We know we will see them in other areas of church ministry.
Many thanks to Ron Leonhardt who finished his term as Trustee Treasurer for the parish. Greg Goss was the only candidate who turned in a nomination form, so there was no need for an election. Congratulations and thanks to Greg for taking on the role of Trustee Treasurer! Also, Dan Nimmer has come on as the at-large member of Finance Council.
