The Nominating Committee for 2013 Board members is forming.
Contact Ned Hood if you are interested in serving on that committee.

 

The Richmond Emmaus Community will be hosting the a Northeast Leadership Training event on August 11, 2012 at Bethia UMC, 9AM - 5PM.  The Leadership development event is available to all members of the community--most especially those who are currently in leadership or who may be assuming community leadership responsibilities in the future.  This would include those on the progressive servant hood tract.  Board members must attend at least once during their Board tenure, preferably during their first year.  There will be a break-out for clergy training.

If you are interested in helping with set up, lunch, music, or other hosting responsibilities,  please contact Bob Barclay.
If you are interested in attending the event, please contact Rachel Pack.
