| On Tuesday, November 16th,
we had our annual church charge conference. The district
superintendent, Clay Jacobs, was present. The
charge conference is the basic governing body of each
United Methodist local church and is composed of all
members of the church council. All members of the charge
conference must be members of the local church. The
charge conference must meet at least once per year. The
charge conference directs the work of the church and
gives general oversight to the church council, reviews
and evaluates the mission and ministry of the church,
sets salaries for the pastor and staff, elects the
members of the church council, and recommends candidates
for ordained ministry. It was a worship style service
focused on the business of the church. |
