ELDER UPDATE -For those of you who were not able to attend our congregational meeting on May 29^th, here is a brief summary:

Minutes from the previous congregational meeting were approved.  You can contact the church office if you would like a copy.

By-law change.  As we’ve discussed in the past, we know there are a number of things within our by-laws that need to be updated.  However, the elders would like to start with a straight-forward change: adjusting when we hold our Annual Meeting.  Currently our by-laws call for this to happen at the start of the year.  However, we complete two important “church business” items (voting on budget and election of elders) at the end of the year.  Therefore, we recommend that the time of the Annual Meeting be updated to reflect when we accomplish these tasks.  We will bring to the congregation a draft of this proposed change soon.

Update on the rental.  The elders communicated that from a financial standpoint, we believe we should sell the rental.  However, after meeting with our tenant to communicate what we were considering, we began to see a potential ministry need and thought it would be wise to invite the congregation into this decision as we discern God’s will.  There was discussion about whether or not to keep the rental, as well as how it could be used for ministry.  Additionally, and perhaps more importantly, we want to consider how we can care for the family living there, and come alongside to meet needs.  We ask for feedback by contacting the elders – you can do this by phone, or in person, or by sending an email to elders@faithchurchdallas.org (UPDATES: 1. As of yet, we have not heard from very many, so again we ask for your input, 2. The tenant recently communicated she has found another place and could move as early as next month).
