2008 Annual Reports

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Editor’s Note

For this first Annual Report under our new Cluster System of Church Governance, I have re-organized the Table of Contents (see clickable links below.) Individual reports are now organized alphabetically under each Cluster, following the official report of that Cluster. The reports of the Co-Moderators, the Nominating Committee, the Treasurer’s, and the Clerk’s Report (which is actually compiled and submitted by the Office Administrator), precede the Clusters-related materials.
