The Executive Committee also has the following unfilled positions: Hunger Relief Advocate and Spiritual Congress Registrar.
After the business meeting we will move into the Sanctuary, where Bishop Sally Dyck will lead us in worship and install the new officers prior to communion. Bishop's message "I Can See Clearly Now!" will focus on the changes we can/might expect during the next four years.
