8. Council
• In the past we have elected new Council members at our June congregational
meeting.
• Last Council meeting we decided to change this practice and elect the new
Council at the official annual congregation meeting (Annual General Meeting -
AGM) which we have been holding in November. This is a more normal practice
(i.e. the Council/Board is elected at the annual meeting of the organization)
• This means, that the members of council will stay in office until at least the
November 2017 meeting.
