Tonight's Ad Board Meeting


The lights were burning brightly at the FUMC in Iraan tonight as the Ad Board met for the first time in 2011.

Highlights of the meeting include:

The board heard the from James (treasurer's report) that we are in good shape as 2011 begins. As with many congregations in this day and age, it is important for everyone to be involved in the support of the ministries of this church. The budget was revised to reflect changes brought about by Pastor Charles' status as an elder under appointment and the increase in medical/pension payments to Conference.

Dr. Franks (trustees) commented on the condition of the rental parsonage (across the street from the church) and the work that will be done to maintain the property. The church itself is in good shape and the flower bed work is on schedule for completion in April.

Attending tonight were: Cathy Allen, Pastor Charles, Wanda Carpenter, Dr. Edwin & Chris Franks, Deanna & James Jordan, Kirke McKenzie, Evans Turpin, and Ronnie Ward


(as Pastor Charles was leaving, Chris Franks reminded him to be on the look out for deer. Just as Pastor Charles passed the turn-off for Alley Oop Lane, he spotted six deer between that corner and the hospital! Good advice, Chris!!!)
