The meeting was called to order at 6:00 PM once a quorum was present. Pastor Nettleton opened with a devotion. The May minutes were approved as written. Pastor Nettleton presented the May attendance numbers and official acts. Attendance was typical for May. Official acts were the funeral of Carl Jorgensen and confirmation of Codi Poole and Sarah Yourshaw. Nancy Behm explained in her report that offering income has been low, but we have been spending under budget. We are down about $4,900 for the month and down about $4,400 for the year.
