At the May 7th meeting, four congregational members joined Pastor Chun for prayer during the meeting proceedings. At this meeting, the Amalgamation Working Committee discussed the handout “Best Hopes, Ideas, concerns for the Future” which is a compilation of all the comments gathered from the May 6th event and organized topically. This document was created by Janet Marshall and Ron Ewart, our facilitators who were present at the service on May 6th and led the discussions afterwards. You will find this document posted on the amalgamation bulletin board at your church. You will also find a list of all the meetings scheduled at the four congregations being held between May 26 - June 10. Please plan to attend one of these very important meetings so that your voice can be heacrd. If you cannot attend a meeting time scheduled with your congregation, you are more than welcome to attend a meeting at another congregation. The Amalgamation Working Committee meets again on Monday, June 11th at Faith at 7 pm. People of God Discussion: CONSIDERING OUR FUTURE Where is God calling us? (Each session will be approximately 90 minutes. Attend at your own church or come along to another. Your choice.)
All sessions will be facilitated by our consultants Janet Marshall and Ron Ewart. The results will be published for all to read. (you may find the material for the discussion below)

The Amalgamation Working Committee was very excited about the Launch Event on May 6th! The service was well organized, the sermon creative and encouraging, the music inspiring and the sanctuary beautifully decorated with the four banners from our joint anniversary celebration in 2015. Each congregation received a candle with the amalgamation logo on it to use in their worship services over the next months. There were 175 enthusiastic members from the four congregations in attendance. Following a light lunch and fellowship, over 100 people stayed for the first round of amalgamation discussions. Thank you to everyone who helped plan and organize the event and to all those working behind the scenes.
