HOW TO REACH US:
On Sunday, March 12, a special Voters’ Meeting was called to decide the issues of the expansion of our parking lot and the offering of a contract for our Director of Music Ministry. 96 Voting Members were in attendance. The expansion of the parking lot, which is to cost no more than $470,000, was passed by a vote of 91 yes votes, 4 no votes and 1 abstention. A unanimous vote followed, agreeing to raise $70,000 by July 1 by pay the balance of the project. It is our hope that the 6-8 week project will begin in May or June. The second topic of the meeting was the offering of a one-year contract to Michael Zehnder as our Director of Music Ministry. By this time a few of the folks had to leave. Only 90 votes were cast. All the votes were "Yes". A contract was sent to Michael on Tuesday. If he accepts the position we hope that he is able to start in the early part of May. Words of thanks were shared with the Parking Lot Committee and the Music Committee for their dedicated work. Thanks were also shared with all the musicians and directors and other helpers who have assisted during this time of vacancy. The next quarterly meeting for the Voters’ will be at noon on Sunday, April 23 - the Sunday after Easter.
RESULTS FROM OUR SPECIAL VOTERS’ MEETING HELD MARCH 12
“On March 12, the voters approved a fund raising drive to help complete the Parking Lot Project. We are planning to raise $70,000 by July. Please mark your contribution envelopes or checks to designate your contributions for the Parking Lot Project. We will provide periodic reports in the Happenings of the progress of our contributions toward this goal. We urge everyone to continue to donate their regular contribution to the congregation.” Ascension Trustees

LOVE INC. CORNER: TO VOLUNTEER OR FOR ASSISTANCE CALL 303-794-LOVE (5683)
Love INC’s main purpose is to provide opportunities to our communities through over 45 churches that give Love INC. a volunteer base. Love INC leads our efforts to shelter the homeless. Love INC provides diapers, financial planning and rides for people that need help getting to the Doctor’s office, the grocery store or the bank. In other words, Love INC. with their Gap Ministries, provides help that is normally not performed by our churches.
Need help developing a budget? Managing our money without a budget is difficult. Love INC volunteers assist people who struggle with finances by identifying expenses and assets and exploring additional resources. The outcome is a manageable budget. Call Love INC at 303-794-LOVE (5683) to work with a counselor or any other need.
