From the Consent Agenda:

Session voted to approve the staff suggestions to continue the Chapel Pilot Program in September:

  • The 8:00 a.m. worship service will take place in the Chapel.
  • The education hour will be 8:45 – 9:45 a.m. in the Chapel.
  • The 10:00 a.m. worship service will be in the sanctuary at the Church on the Green.
  • Sunday School will move to the Howard House while childcare will remain in the Chapel transept, where it was located during the initial pilot program.
  • Following the time with young Christians, children would be invited to a special “children’s church”-type experience in the Chapel. This is a new idea, still being formulated.
  • The choir room will be for music program purposes.
  • The entire program will be evaluated by staff and session at the December 2023 meeting. Once again, the congregation will be asked for their input.

Respectfully submitted,
