There was no Ministry and Counsel committee report.

There was no treasurer’s report this month.

After the end of this week, Shane may be able to help with garage painting. There is still scraping to be done. Thomas can help some of the time. Jim Kenney will solicit help by email.

Per Rachel’s inquiry about whether to pay insurance on the house as is, or with adjustments required by Rich’s research, Friends suggest she contact Rich after paying the billed amount. Adjustments can be handled later.
