Please plan to attend a special Charge Conference on Sunday June 10 at 1 pm. We will be serving lunch after church so it’s easy to stick around!
We are taking a crucial vote on our potential partnership with West Outer Drive UMC in Detroit. In February, our church voted to enter into a conversation with West Outer Drive about creating a merger/adoption that would result in “One Church, Two Locations”. Both churches voted to enter the conversation at that time. Since then, Pastor Jeff and a transition team has spent time looking at funding, programming, staffing and building issues. Much of this information has been presented in a series of handouts that have been available at church for a few weeks.
But now it is time to decide. Our District Superintendent will be with us. We need to hear from you and make a decision as a congregation about the future of Redford Aldersgate. Hope to see you there!
UPDATE:
The congregation voted to approve this merger – stay tuned for more info!
