Congregational Meeting Plan to join others from Mellinger on Wednesday
evening, May 20, for a time of working together at hearing updates and setting
direction for our Mellinger congregation.
Minister of Administration Elders have asked a committee to work at
reviewing the Job Description for Minister of Administration and making a
recommendation on next steps to calling a new Minister of Administration. The
committee is Nelson Risser, Dorthy Livengood, Dave Kobie, and Michele Heller.
During this interim period, the trustees are overseeing the building and grounds
needs and Steve Ober is giving leadership in the area of finances.
The Building Renovation Listening Commission needs and values your
input! We would like to hear from everyone, so please share your ideas,
concerns and insights with any one of us: Sally Jo Hess, Mindy Hoover,
Wilmer Nolt, or Jack Shenk.
SAVE THE DATE! The 2015 Camp Hebron Weekend is scheduled for July

joining us this year. It is a beautiful casual setting in which we can get to know
each other better, and have a lot of fun! If you have any questions, please ask
Fred Bube, Joanne Kuniholm, or Brenda Weaver.
Delegates Needed for the MCUSA Convention

scheduled for June 30 – July 5 with travel days on June 29 and July 6. Mellinger
Mennonite Church is eligible to send 3-4 delegates to the convention. The
