The St Luke’s Annual Congregational Meeting in January will be online due to COVID-19 restrictions and precautions. There will be a phone-in option for those members who do not have access to a computer.
The Minneapolis Area Synod of the ELCA has indicated that Congregational Councils can adopt resolutions authorizing remote meetings in compliance with state law. The St Luke’s Council passed a resolution on November 10, 2020 authorizing remote meetings.
The two budget hearings preparatory to the annual meeting will also be online. We will be using the budget hearings as a test to see how the process works for larger groups. The council has been meeting online for months as are many businesses, committees, families and even social groups. I encourage everyone to join one of the budget hearings to get both a preview of the 2021 Budget and become familiar with the online meeting process.
Stay tuned for more specific information regarding the timing and process, including links, of the upcoming meetings. If you have questions please feel free to contact me
