Mission’s Board Minutes
11/11/08
Present: Mark Ligman, Sandi Parsons, Jason Jones, Rhonda Beilke, Keith Carpenter, Wanda Kolding

Old Business:

“Faith Comes by Hearing” project: Jeannette Conver came to refresh our memory of the Bible on audio project looking for funding for producing audio bibles for people groups that can’t read or have the written word in their language. We have chosen the first 2 Sunday’s in December to ask for offering to sponsor such a project for a people group. She presented us information about 4 different groups and we voted to ask for support for the India/Nepal group. Mark will let Jeannette know which group was chosen.

Mission’s Logo: Mark brought in several ideas for us to look that Amanda tried out. They were designs with a sun, branch and vine design. We all agreed we’d like to see more of the world map concept. Mark will take our ideas back and share them and see what Amanda can do with them.

New Business:

Budget for 2009: Pastor John has asked that we look carefully at the budget in consideration of the economy that is affecting the church as a whole. We are suggesting that we drop support for the Camp of Cascades for now. They are doing well and will be considered in the next budget. We are also suggesting that we drop funds for the “Emergency” and “Materials and Supplies” line items. We are adding funds for Convers (Isaac and _________) at ½ of the missionary amount at this time. If they stay for more than a year we will increase that to the full amount. We are also entertaining the idea of ½ support for the Cannons if they choose to ask us for support in their work.
Jason Jones asked for the budget motion to be past, Sandi seconded the motion. Motion past with all members voting in favor.

Mark brought up that Jason and Sandi’s term has been completed. The board asked that they consider continuing on for another term. Both Jason and Sandi agreed. The board told Sandi she has permission to say no to jobs and we will make sure she does not volunteer for more than she should. The team voted in favor of their staying on for another term.

Please read and let me know if I got everything or if there are any corrections.
