What The Meeting Was About

What was contained in my final call for a Church Meeting? (see the previous post). I called the Church Meeting for the following purposes:

1. To reaffirm our Congregational tenets, so strengthening our foundations.
2. To approve a consultant's proposals (DNA Consulting) for the Church, among other things clarifying roles and processes for a truly Congregational body.
3. To open up the contents of a consultant's report (the Ecumenical Pastoral Institute) to both minister and members. Or failing this, to rule the report out of order.
4. To consider what to do regarding physical assault and injury to the minister (myself).
5. To hand over suspensions of members to the decision of the Church Meeting. And
6. To finalise Non-Profit Organisation compliance, so making the Church accountable to its constitution, among other things protecting its considerable assets.
