Meeting Notes - April 24

Over the last few weeks, we have ventured out seeking the Lord’s will for the future of our school. Our two meetings have proven to be very strategic in seeking out the level of support the school has as well as laying out any ground work for what steps need to be taken next. Both of these areas have proven to be very productive. We are now ready to move forward to take the next steps.

From our last meeting, four things were accomplished:

  • We established the concept for how the school could operate financially.
  • We determined the need to locate and secure property as quick as possible developing some potential leads.
  • We determined that there was a need to be incorporated in order to develop the school efficiently and correctly.
  • We determined the need to establish a team of leaders—an Interim Board—that would oversee the setup of the school.

This Interim Board would serve as a leadership team that God can use to lead us forward in pursuing His will as well as making quick and necessary decisions for the development of the new school. It was determined that the Board needed to consist of 6 members, one of them serving as President of the Board. The other 5 would serve as members.

This brings us to the purpose of today’s letter!

Next Monday, April 28, 2008, we will be holding nominations and elections for Board Members for this leadership team. I cannot stress enough two things:

  • First, how very important it is this week that all of us, who care about PCA and the Lord’s will, bathe this election night in prayer as we come together to assemble a team of leaders.
  • Next, how very important it will be that every person come and participate. We need you to have a part in this school. We need you to consider whether or not God would have you to be nominated to serve on this leadership team.

In this process, we will be looking among the group for any and all who are willing to be nominated for the positions, starting with the office of President of the Board. We will then take the nominees for President alone and conduct the election process to establish our leader.

Once the President of the Board is elected, we will then move forward in taking nominees and electing the remaining five officers together. All elections will be taking place by secret ballot.

This step of electing a board is crucial in lifting off the plans of relocating and re-establishing our school. This is why we need your participation.

The purpose of this letter today is to make the announcement informing every one of these necessary elections so that you can come and be an equal part of the process.

Thanks so much for your care and love for our beloved school. May God help us together this week as we seek His will for the future of PCA.
