March Session News - Reports and Action Items


*Property: Costs of repair of Building 1 have been settled and were over $3,000 less than Session
approved for the project. Elders Alexander and Wintersgill were thanked for their work in getting the building repaired.

*Property: The air condition systems are very old and may crash at anytime. Property is working to get a short-term solution and beginning to look at long-term solutions.

*Property: A new congregation of another denomination has requested contracting to use some of our buildings on Saturdays. Property will gather more information, consult with Christian Education and bring it back to the session in May.

*Administration/Personnel update on Mary Sterner’s leave: Mary will be on campus one day a week and will work from home the other four days each week. A reporting form is being drawn up to make the communication between Sterner, Christian Education, Administration and Personnel committees and the Financial Secretary. The plan was approved by Session.

*Worship recommended Jon for vacation in July with Linda Herron preaching those Sundays.
*Worship announced new hymnals are coming out in 2013. There is a big saving if they are ordered and paid for before January 1, 2013. This will be revisited in May.

*Received a report from Ed Knight and David Gibson of Presbyterian Children’s Home and
Services regarding Houston Single Family Program. Continuing in discernment.
