Our Savior’s Church Council Meeting: July 11, 2024
Council Members Present: Pastor Dennis, President Brandon W., VP Dawn G., Gordy N., Secretary Shana B., Destiny C. and Rick H. Absent: Riley C.
Brandon called the meeting to order.
Pastor Dennis opened in prayer and Spiritual Thoughts:
Pastor Dennis discussed the book of Deuteronomy, in which the bible teaches up we are created to live for others. The godless society believes you live for yourself. It is described by the media as individualism and it is a destructive idea. God teaches us to look to Him to find meaning and happi9ness in community rather than inside.
Approval of Agenda: A motion was made to approve the Agenda by Rick, 2nd by Destiny. All in favor. MC
