Charge

Based on MMC Elders discernment with our pastors and their experiences with other congregations during sabbatical, the Elders invited church officers and committee chairs to a day-long retreat to explore the possibility of new operating structures at MMC.
Following further discernment at the July 7, 2018 retreat, MMC leadership overwhelmingly agreed to begin a process of exploring whether new models for governance structure might be appropriate at MMC.
To accomplish the task a Governance Working Group was appointed by the Elders. The group will spend several months exploring the current structure, potential structures, and receiving input from the congregation with the goal of providing a summary of the work that may include draft proposals by our annual business meeting in 2019.
If a proposal is accepted by the congregation, the Governance Working Group will be responsible for implementing it on a trial basis.
