I’d like to look into better site and email hosting options as well. The hope is to have a plan mapped out and ready to roll out in the New Year.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Sarah added that she and Wayne met and they will be able to stream the annual meeting so that people can attend virtually.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jan asked how many people are on the social media team.\u00a0 Sarah confirmed that right now it is just her and Wayne.\u00a0 They are looking to grow the team.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jan also asked if virtual attendees for the annual meeting will be able to have their votes counted.\u00a0 Wayne said that they will count, because those attending virtually will be there, live, and others will be able to see them.\u00a0 Sarah and Wayne noted that people will need to sign up and will be given a link to join the meeting live.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jeff added that the meeting is scheduled for November 15th<\/sup> and this will be a meeting with a preliminary budget proposal (this would also normally include council member elections, but there are none this year).\u00a0 There will also be a meeting in February 2021 to present the annual report with final numbers from the year.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Treasurer Report: <\/strong><\/p>\n Lord of the

Account as of September, 2020 is $20,487.95<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Operating Budget Explanation:<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Our YTD income for Church Operations is lower than budgeted by ($5,288).\u00a0 Our Regular Envelope\/Vanco\/Credit Card giving is lower than budgeted by ($4,050), our Loose Offering is lower than budget by ($2,944).<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We received Scrip proceeds as of September 2020 $3,600 of our Fiscal Year.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Summary<\/strong><\/p>\n We did budget for a ($14,648) Deficit YTD and our Actual Surplus YTD is $17,185<\/p>\n <\/p>\n It was also noted that there is a 3.75% interest rate on the mortgage which matures in 2022.\u00a0 The mortgage is approximately $844,000.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jeff let Gail know that we will need a check for $500.00 cut for ARC for the roof repair deductible.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Kristen Bjornstad made a motion to approve the treasurer\u2019s report.\u00a0 David Wein seconded.\u00a0 Approved.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Stewardship:\u00a0 <\/strong>Wayne is monitoring the church\u2019s income related to offering.\u00a0 Right now we are about $5000 under budget.\u00a0 He added that the stewardship committee is morphing into something \u201cdifferent\u201d.\u00a0 They are handling offerings, marketing of the endowment fund and e-giving.\u00a0 Members serving on this committee are Wayne Ludkey, Kate Pfaendtner, Vern Olson and Dennis Raatjes.\u00a0 They are using this one committee for several functions rather than forming separate smaller groups for each thing.\u00a0 The stewardship committee will discuss the Endowment Fund at the budget meeting.\u00a0 They are calling this campaign the \u201cCelebration of Generosity.\u201d\u00a0 Wayne added that if the endowment fund does better, that the gains could go toward larger projects.\u00a0 Pastor Kevin asked about the enthusiasm level of the team members.\u00a0 Wayne stated that the enthusiasm is very good, and added that if anyone knows others who may be interested, or would be a good fit, to let him know.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n OLD BUSINESS<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Reopening:\u00a0 <\/strong>Jeff said that with the colder weather, the parking lot ushers should be by the front door and people should drive under the overhang [to get the bulletin and communion elements].\u00a0 John P. commented that the main church entrance has been getting bottlenecked between services now with those coming\/going\/dropping off offerings [due to Sunday school], so this is a good idea.\u00a0 Pastor Kevin said that we could try it this Sunday.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jan asked if extra ushers would be needed for the confirmation service (2nd<\/sup> service on 10\/25).\u00a0 Pastor Kevin said that we should be OK.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Constitution:\u00a0 <\/strong>Jan heard back from the synod office.\u00a0 They only had one wording change.\u00a0 There were no changes to the structure, but there are some numbering changes to be made.\u00a0 She will have the report ready to get out by November 1st<\/sup> [to the congregation] so that everyone has it for review by the 11\/15\/2020 meeting.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jeff asked if we could have separate preliminary budget and revise constitution handouts.\u00a0 Jan added that she will be providing the whole constitution (not just the revised chapters) because the format was new for the synod in 2019.\u00a0 Jan will also be adding a clause designed to give council the power to make decisions which require a greater than $10,000 payout in emergency situations.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jeff asked Gail if she could the preliminary budget proposal out by 11\/1\/2020.\u00a0 Gail confirmed that she could and she will include year-to-date numbers as well.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In regards to the budget, David asked it will be based on the reductions that are currently in place or will those items be added back in?\u00a0 Gail said that groups\/teams were asked for their budgets, large gifts that were received in 2020 were removed and that they look at how much the current expenses are, and add a small increase [usually 3%].\u00a0 She added that the teams usually come in very close to what they budget (or under).<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jeff asked Gail to get an email out to council by 10\/27 with the preliminary budget proposal.\u00a0 A 5% decrease in revenue should be factored in.\u00a0 He would like to get this out by 10\/29 to be ready for 11\/1.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Employee Handbook:\u00a0 <\/strong>David sent this out via email.\u00a0 The highlighted sections are where questions lie.\u00a0 He may throw topics out to groups for discussion.\u00a0 The handbook is a high level overview and will refer to the guidelines handbook.\u00a0 Once questions have been discussed, David will bring the handbook back to council for review\/approval.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n NEW BUSINESS<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Jill\u2019s Resignation:<\/strong>\u00a0 Jill will retire effective December 9, 2020.\u00a0 Right now there are two part-time employees.\u00a0 Jeff feels that we should keep it that way and would like to place an ad (bulletin\/local newspapers\/Craig\u2019s list or Facebook).\u00a0 Wayne noted that the details of this position were worked out before (job duties\/hours\/criteria\/vacation).\u00a0 Pastor Kevin thinks that Kerry Arent or Geoff Hendren may have put that together.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jan asked if we should try to get someone in before Jill leaves (for training).\u00a0 Jeff said that he would like to have a new hire in place by December 1st<\/sup>, so that he\/she can work with Jill for a week (a hiring committee will be established).\u00a0 Pastor Kevin said that Ellen can probably do the training, but there are still thing that Jill is showing her.\u00a0 The office is using an old, cumbersome software program.\u00a0 Wayne suggested that it may be time to update the software package.\u00a0 Jeff would like to see a list from Jill, Ellen and Doris on which job duties each of them perform, so that it can be evaluated.\u00a0 Jan will send out a list of the job duties and each of the ladies can cross out anything that they don\u2019t do and add anything they do (if not on the list).<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jeff will email out the timeline he envisions for the hiring process.\u00a0 Jeff asked Sarah to email him in a week or so to remind him about the ad for Facebook.\u00a0 Current wages and starting wage for the new hire will be looked into and discussed by council.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Furnaces:\u00a0 <\/strong>Jeff relayed that B & G is working with Oshkosh Heating and Cooling on getting three of the furnaces replaced.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n John Penza made a motion to accept the B & G Furnace replacement proposal.\u00a0 Wayne Ludkey seconded.\u00a0 Council was unanimous.\u00a0 Approved.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jeff noted that six council members were present at the B & G meeting as well as Pastor Kevin and they all heard the presentation.\u00a0 Jan added that it was a conscious decision to replace only three of the furnaces so that they won\u2019t all need to be replaced at the same time in the future.\u00a0 Jeff said that this replacement does include A\/C replacement.\u00a0 The rainy day fund, cash on hand and the Linda Zillges fund are all being utilize to pay for the furnace replacement.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Roof:\u00a0 <\/strong>Six council members and Pastor Kevin were available at the B & G presentation regarding roof repair on 10\/13\/2020.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jeff noted that it would cost $2589.60 to add on the utility building\/dumpster building to the roof repair.\u00a0 He also handed out the warranty information.\u00a0 The church is in a wind tunnel and getting better shingles\/better insulation was recommended (as opposed to replacing with the same quality that the building had).\u00a0 The warranty was also recommended because if there is any wind damage in the future, it won\u2019t be covered by insurance (this is the third roof claim for the current building).\u00a0 It will cost $25,000-$30,000 extra, over what insurance is paying, to get higher quality shingles and the warranty.\u00a0 Wayne suggested having a capital campaign as we would not want to exhaust the entire rainy day fund.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Gail confirmed that there is approximately $67,000 in a variety of funds PLUS the cash available in the checking account.\u00a0 We would need to deduct the furnace and roof expense from these funds.<\/p>\n Jan Olson made a motion to approve the proposal to replace the roof ($25,613) with the warranty, not to exceed $30,000 out of pocket expense to Lord of the Lakes.\u00a0 David Wein seconded.\u00a0 Council was unanimous.\u00a0 Approved.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jeff added that it would cost approximately $2700, in addition to the expenses already discussed, to replace the roof on the dumpster shed.\u00a0 This would just be for aesthetics and is not necessary.\u00a0 Council does not support replacing the roof on the dumpster shed at this time.\u00a0 Jeff will let Kate Pfaendtner know.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n OTHER BUSINESS<\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Women\u2019s Group Service Project:<\/strong>\u00a0 Kristen added that sign ups and an informational email will be going out to get ladies organized for the 11\/27\/2020 meal service date at Day by Day Warming Shelter in Oshkosh.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Wayne Ludkey made a motion to adjourn.\u00a0 David Wein and Sarah Miller seconded.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Closing Prayer \u2013 Pastor Kevin<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n Next Meeting:\u00a0 11\/17\/2020 at 6:30 p.m.<\/strong><\/p>\n
