Hi all, your board members met last night, Wednesday March 10, to discuss some upcoming things. I’ll get right into it:

1. On Friday March 26 at 7pm, we will be leading the Stations of the Cross in the church. Christina Agustin is coordinating volunteers, so if you would like to help, please get in contact with her, or contact us here: http://www.lukefive.org/contact.

2. At next week’s YAM meeting, we will be holding nominations for the next board. More on that below. Melissa will be leading after that, on the topic “The First Twelve Weeks”, speaking about the spiritual adoption program that we have been involved in for some time now.

3. At the March 23rd YAM meeting, we will be holding elections for the new board. To see the position descriptions, please click on the following link: http://tinyurl.com/YAMPositions

If you are interested in nominating yourself for any of the positions and/or have any questions about any of them, please come to next week’s meeting or send us a message and include which position you are interested in and/or have questions about. Please message us your self-nomination and/or questions if you can’t make it to next week’s meeting.

That’s it for now.
Thanks all.
