Annual Congregational Meeting Highlights

 

Dan ZieglerWalter HaussmannSt. Mark's annual congregational meeting took place after the second service on May 15, 2011.  This is one of two annual meetings required by the church constitution.

Only two items of business were on the agenda.  The most critical item of business was the election members of the Congregation Council.  The nominating committee submitted four names to fill the four open positions:  Bonnie Eyer, a one term incumbent, and new members Walter Haussmann, Ray Huff and Dan Ziegler.  The nominating committee's report was approved without dissent and all four were approved for three year terms on Council.

Bonnie EyerRay HuffAt the conclusion of the election, out-going President, Gary Weber, congratulated the new Council members and welcomed them to their new responsibilities.  He also thanked their predecessors for their service: Beth Shafranko, who was also Worship and Music Committee Chair, Mutual Ministry member and Assistant Secretary; Todd Smith, who was Vice President of Council; and Scott Bittner, Chair of Property Committee.

The second item of business on the agenda was to consider approving the booklet of reports submitted to the membership.  The reports were approved unanimously. 

As a final matter, President Weber thanked the search committee which successfully discovered our new Music Director, Jungwha Kim.  The committee, composed of Deb Buckman, Joyce Hershberger, Karen Boone, Bernadette Jones, Pastor Elkin and Carl Hieber, worked diligently to find a high quality candidate for the position.

The meeting adjourned to a reception held in honor of Music Director Jungwha Kim, in fellowship hall.
