At the consistory meeting, held on April 8, the following men were nominated for office bearers. For (2) elders: Mark Arnoudse, Tom Moerdyk, Dwight Prince and Ron Rittner. The terms of elders Ron Rittner and Andy VandenToorn are expiring. For (2) deacons: Gerrit Kleyn, Roger Osmun, Dave Pronk and Eric Wielhouwer. The terms of deacons Dwight Prince and Roger Osmun are expiring. The consistory presents this list for the memberships prayerful consideration, with a vote schedule to take place at our annual membership meeting held May 1, 2013 at 7:30. The consistory recommends to your reading the fresh republication of Rev. Wisse, Christs Ministry in the Christian. This is an instructive and heart-warming book on how Christ administers His three offices in the heart of a sinner whom God is saving. Perhaps some might wish to study it as a group. Several copies are available from the table in the Narthex.

Although we want to encourage families to come and enjoy the concert, it will need to be quiet to preserve sound quality. With this in mind, we would ask that parents refrain from bringing young infants to the concert. A collection will be taken for Come Over and Help. Refreshments will be served following.
