October Parish Council Update

​Parish Council met on October 16th for our monthly meeting. 
There were two people away due to family and study. 

Each month, we start with a bible study, this month led by Corinna; we then spent time together on a series we are working through from the Leading Your Church into Growth material. This month, we discussed prayer, presence, and ways to proclaim and provide opportunities to interact and explore the Good News. 

Following this, we spent time checking in on our roles and actions as a governance team from last month, which centered around building committee and conversation actions. 

We spoke of the having had, recently, and the need for conversation with the Diocese and Heritage NZ about our building, we are hoping for a conversation with key stakeholders shortly. 

We made adjustments to the Electoral Role for several people who have now moved on from our parish; if you are not on our parish role and you would like to discuss this, please feel free to reach out to Guy via the vicar's email. 

Guy gave an update about the abide conference, and we spoke of our commitment to the governance and stewardship of the parish; there was a beautiful sense of trust and commitment to one another and the parish in the room. 

Our last meeting for the year will be November 20th 

Yours in Christ
