Church Council (Tom Angeliu)  The Council is responsible for overseeing the operations of the church and to be the visionary body along with the pastor.  The general philosophy is to be a permission-giving council instead of a micro-managing council.  In addition to addressing various team needs, Council meetings are also focused on the major leadership issues facing the church in living our Mission, Vision, and Values Statements.  Each council member contributes his/her experiences to lead our congregation accordingly. Yearly activities include supporting the stewardship program, yearly budgets, Rally Day, “Council Sunday” participation, facilities and programmatic aspects.  A council member term is for 3 years, and a council member can serve up to 6 consecutive years before they must resign for at least one year.  The church council consists of 9 congregational members and the pastor.  Council meets once a month most of the time.  There is a team-building weekend retreat to prepare for the Congregation Meeting each year.  Each Council Member acts as a team member and liaison to a ministry of our church.  At a minimum, the time commitment is 3 to 4 hours a month.
