STEWARDSHIP CLUSTER

The Stewardship Cluster comprises the elements of our church community that enable us to reach outward and inward: a building for worship and church programs, support of our leadership, and funds to fulfill our ongoing commitments. Its responsibilities include: (together with the Treasurer) funding and financial oversight, personnel and legal matters; our building; and certain aspects of community engagement (enabling building use, Williams College liaison, church history, and allocation methods for Makepeace funds).

Organization

Stewardship Cluster 2008 members have included: Robert Behr , Adriana Brown, Susan Clarke, Keith Davis, Jody Green, Robert Hadden, Brian Handspicker, Cesar Silva, and Anne Skinner. Each member has brought a unique background in participation in the life of the church, has shared views and experiences, has contributed to decision-making, and has sought to broaden his or her understanding of the administrative operations of the church. Cluster members have worked closely with the Treasurer (who has acted as an ex officio member), have made policy and spending decisions, and have worked with other members of the Congregation in sub-groups focused on specific projects. Jody Green has been our scribe for most of our written reports.
