Our Church's Charge Conference was held on Monday, November 22nd in the Sanford-Davis Room. Our District Superintendent was present and read a letter of greeting from Bishop Sudarshana Devedhar.  We then proceeded to elect a Secretary, vote on positions such as Lay Leader, Committee Chairs/Members, Trustees, receive a Staff report from Staff Parish and approve the salaries for our Pastors. We also received an Audit and Membership Report and concluded with Holy Communion.  

The Pastoral and Committee reports from this Conference are attached (to download them click here). In keeping with our policy for the website, the names of members have been deleted or changed to a first name and last initial.  Committee lists and Membership lists have been deleted.  Anyone needing this information may contact Jean (jean(at)princetonumc.org) to obtain a printed copy, while supplies last.
