Each year, at the Spring Congregational Meeting (held between May 1-31), the Congregation elects At-Large members for three-year terms and also elects the four Board Officers (President, Vice-President, Secretary and Treasurer), who serve one-year terms.
For the 2021-22 church year, the Board of Trustees will hold business meetings on the second Wednesday of each month at 7 p.m. (except for the June meeting, which will be held on Tuesday, June 15.) Members and friends are welcome to attend.
