UPDATE:

Our Buildings and Grounds and All Church Retreat volunteer needs have been fulfilled! Thank you so much for your support. 

We are still looking for a Treasurer. Please read below for details

Our Community relies on a large volunteer force to make everything run smoothly. These are some current critical needs in our community.  If you are interested in any of these positions or would like more information please contact Robin Miller robin.elisabeth@gmail.com

Treasurer – One of the most important volunteer positions in the church! Main duties include:

• Provide fiscal oversight and keep fiscal responsibility for the church
• Hold monthly Finance Council meetings (2 hours per month) 
• Approve weekly Billpay requests from the bookkeeper (along with reviewing associated receipts and expense reports) – 20 minutes / week
• Respond to staff and member emails relating to finances (about 1 per weekday on average)
• Prepare the annual budget and iterate on it with the Board (~20 hours)
• Prepare slides for the congregation relating to the budget (~5 hours)
• Hold three Budget Forums before the annual meeting and address feedback
• Present the budget at the annual meeting
• Work on various initiatives as determined by the Board and Finance Council (e.g., financial audits, update operating procedures, etc)

All Church Retreat — The next All Church Retreat is coming up in August 2024 and we need someone to chair this committee.  Initial venue reservation needs to happen now, in the fall of 2023.  Starting at the beginning of 2024, the chair gathers the committee to start planning.  As the retreat nears, the chair makes sure the venue is aware of our needs and we find out what activities are available to us, workshops and activities are planned and registration happens. Currently, it is time to secure the venue and we’d like to have the new chair be part of that process.

Buildings and Grounds– This position’s duties have changed radically since we hired a maintenance staff person.  The buildings and grounds chair will be coordinating two all-church work days in Fall and Spring (in coordination with Garden’s Chairs) to clean, maintain and generally spruce the church grounds.  In addition Rev David is envisioning working with Buildings and Grounds to create a longer term plan to address maintenance/replacement of systems as they age/are damaged to help with financial planning.
