Monthly Worship Experiment: The Joint Leadership Team is seeking the approval of the congregation for a 4-month experiment in which we would worship and exist for whole months at a one of our locations. August and October services and events would be at the CRC; September and November services and events would be at Grace. At the end of November, this experiment would end, and we would return to worshiping as we currently do. The reasons for this experiment are as follows: to see what it’s like to worship at one location over an extended period of time; ease for Sunday School teachers to not move materials weekly; to see the effect on costs; the simplicity of knowing where to go; and to see the pros and cons of each building. More will be shared at the end of this morning’s service. On Sunday, July 9, a vote to accept/deny this experiment will take place. All professing members are eligible to vote, and absentees will be received with a signature.
