membership and fellowship team
carol entler - team leader

We do more than food and beverages for fellowship and receptions.  The Team works with the Pastor to gather potential names and schedule times for new member classes. Among our responsibilities is recommending to the Session any changes to the membership rolls to keep them current. To be able to make these recommendations more compassionately and more accurately, we have been developing a closer relationship with the Deacons who this year have been receiving attendance reports from the sanctuary fellowship pads. A new counters’ form has been developed to identify visitor contact information from donations made by check. Pastor Tina makes every effort to send a letter to visitors, either from the sanctuary fellowship pads or the new counters’ forms submitted.

The monthly Grapevine “Fellowship Focus” column and “Name Tag Sunday” are Team efforts. Coming soon for the 2013-2014 year will be a new web-based “Instant Church Directory,” which has been approved by the Session. Dawn Collins, as our church webmaster, will be taking the lead in putting this together and more information will follow as it becomes available.

Thank you to the congregation for your generosity in providing cookies and other finger-food treats, both for our Sunday coffee fellowship gatherings and for special events when they come around. If you would like to join us on a regular basis with our planning and ministry, please contact any one of us.
