Healthy M&Ms?!

Hi Everyone! Have you heard of M&Ms? - Memorise Scripture, Meditate Prayerfully, Maximise Nature and Minimise Media!

The Executive Committee met last Wednesday.  The committee received a progress report on our two main communication sources: the weekly NNZC Bulletin and Website.  Please note the new address www.nnzc.org.nz -  and its new look.

Ed Gallagher, Spiritual Growth Pastor for our NNZ Conference, presented a report on the Sabbath School and Small Groups resources he has developed.  These resources are now available on the website.

The committee discussed ongoing developments with regard to the implications of the new Charities Act.  Over the next 12 months, improvements in our systems for giving will take place.  These improvements are intended to ease the work of church treasurers and to allow our members and churches to benefit from the new tax rebate rate that is available for church financial contributors.

The financial position of the conference remains strong.  Thank you for your faithfulness in these difficult times.

We have recently heard from Luke and Amy Bapty who moved from our Union to the Greater Sydney Conference a couple of weeks ago.  They are both well and are settling into their new home.

David Wilson from Palmerston North has recently joined the Conference Treasury team as the Accountant in charge of the North New Zealand Conference accounts.
