The process has started! The Amalgamation Task Force met with our coaches Janet Marshall and Ron Ewen from the Toronto United Church Council Centre for Church Development and Leadership. A work plan has been laid out with the goal of having a decision on amalgamation by the end of the year. As you can imagine, this will take many meetings in each congregation and together. With Janet and Ron’s guidance and leadership we will have many opportunities to explore and discuss amalgamation. All voices will be heard!
Please remember to keep your task force members in your prayers and, while we all need to be praying for this process, it is important to have someone from each congregation to pray while the task force is in session. Please let your pastor know if you can be part of the prayer group on March 12th. The Task Force will meet again on March 12th at Transfigurationplus there will be a joint council/board meeting on March 24th. At both meetings planning will take place for different dates for discussions, learning, social events, and mission visioning. This is a very exciting time! You will be receiving a lot of communication regarding the process and progress. Be on the lookout for an amalgamation launch event this spring!
