Next Meeting:
Saturday, April 22, 8:00 AM

Purpose of Administration Meeting:

Developing leaders that can follow through with excellence in all of the five fold ministries as we coordinate body wide activities and serve each other as unto the Lord

• Discipleship
• Evangelism
• Worship
• Service
• Fellowship

Specific Topics discussed this month:

Finances: ( Kevin )
The number of people giving has not increased, but the amount of giving has exceeded our expectations, this is not our prayer but we are thankful for the increase. Our prayer is that everyone will be able to contribute no matter what the amount.

Job Posting:
One of the goals of this team was to identify jobs that could make our ministry better and to better utilize some members that would like to contribute time and service but just don't know where to start. We have made some progress and still have a few roles

• Sound Mix ( Joe Joe, Fred and Josh have all begun training )
• Greeting ( Brenda Jones is pulling the WWRP into this role! )
• Maintaining a list of small repairs around the building ( need volunteer )
• Mercy administrator ( need volunteer )
• Moving Trash to curb on Thursday night ( Paul Baker has been doing this! )

Building: ( Donovan )
The Steeple repair is the top priority and windows are a close second. Make-a-mess will be covered in its own section. Donovan called in his discussion on Friday night due to a Fishing Tournament near Berea on Saturday. During the meeting we also scheduled at Spring Cleanup day for Saturday, May 20th immediately following a short brother's meeting. On May 20th, we plan to do all of the following:

• Remove all extra trailers, cars, boats from out back
• Level off all areas intended for grass and reseed if necessary
• Spread mulch
• Put piano in dumpster
• Trim trees
• Remove junk from water retention basin and weed eat

VBS: ( Dacian taking over from Kelley )
Dacian has scheduled VBS for the last week of June ( 26th through 30th ). We have heard that the theme is "Arctic North" and that there will be plenty of work for all volunteers. Dacian also called in her discussion early.

Youth: ( Matt )
Looking at renting a 15 passenger van for Bob's camp this year ( July 9th through 15th) in order to save money and trouble for the parents and leaders. Matt is the only leader that will be traveling down and staying there the whole time.

Make-A-Mess (Matt)
Things are beginning to clear up in terms of permission and schedule. Matt will be working a task list with others so that we can get the major work done in the first two weeks of June.

• May ( move thermostats and electric to walls that will remain )
• June 2 ( Mars Hill done with school year and Billy's office contents moved )
• June 3 - June 16 ( Major destruction / construction )

This has to be done on a pretty tight schedule because of VBS needing to prepare the building for June 26th through 30th. We are assuming that decorating will occur both weekends prior to VBS.
