MEETING FOR WORSHIP WITH ATTENTION TO BUSINESS, Eleventh month, Sixth day;

The clerk opened the meeting with a reading and silence.

The Ministry and Oversight report was heard and approved.

The treasurer’s report was heard and accepted. We’re running behind for the year, and Friends are encouraged to contribute.

House upkeep reported that Brenda Funk is taking a year off from the committee. She has been a tireless and selfless worker, and we are deeply grateful to her. The wall at the back of the property is now rebuilt, the yard has been regraded to keep water out of the garage, and several other projects are underway. Volunteers are needed for yet more projects. We commend all those involved in the work.

Nominating committee reported that they’ve met twice, and will complete their work by next MFWWAB. They asked approval for their membership, and it was given.

Program committee reported two dates lacking programs. These were resolved.

Publications committee reported that the list of members and attendees is out of date. After considerable discussion about whom and when to send the newsletter to, and in what form, the discussion was inconclusive and will be taken up by the committee itself.

Jim Kenney asked that the meeting approve the use of Sufferings for occasional contributions to the Clergy and Church Against Racial Violence group. The meeting approved his request.
