Bylaws update
Updating our bylaws
The Bylaws Team, Oversight Elders, and Campus Elders have completed the bylaws rewrite, review, and approval process, and these three entities are ready to present the bylaws to our church membership.
We will hold three town hall meetings for questions and response over the proposed new bylaws and handbook. Any member is welcome to attend any or all of the below meetings.
July 28 – 5pm at the Oakville Campus
August 4 – 5pm at the Webster Campus
August 11 – 5pm at the Windsor Campus
A date for members to vote on the proposed bylaws will be announced once the Bylaws Team, Oversight Elders, and Campus Elders have determined that sufficient time has been allowed for questions.
Thank you for your prayers and patience, and we look forward to the coming years of faithfully serving the Lord together.
