Saturday, February 22, 8:30am
We will begin at 8:30 am with registration, fellowship and breakfast, followed by a business meeting during which we will discuss the plans the GCUMM has for responding to the upcoming General Conference outcome.
As part of the business meeting we will hold the election of certain officers of the NICUMM Executive Committee.
The Nominations Committee has nominated the following slate of officers per the bylaws:
[These nominees are continuing in their current office and nominations can be made from the floor at the meeting.]
The Executive Committee also has the following unfilled positions: Hunger Relief Advocate and Spiritual Congress Registrar.
After the business meeting we will move into the Sanctuary, where Bishop Sally Dyck will lead us in worship and install the new officers prior to communion. Bishop's message "I Can See Clearly Now!" will focus on the changes we can/might expect during the next four years.
Be sure to talk about this event at your men’s meetings and bring a carload of men to this informative meeting and service!
Please RSVP to Vern Geddes verner0104@att.net or 773-550-0732 by Feb. 19 to let them know how many men from your church will be there for breakfast.
