    Correspondence was received requesting increases in the budget line items for these ministries initiated by Grace ARP but which has benefited all our ARP churches (and others)
    Session approved a range of increase for the deacons to consider. Even so, any budget proposal will still need to be approved at our annual meeting.

    The steps of a man are established by the LORD, when he delights in his way; though he fall, he shall not be cast headlong, for the LORD upholds his hand.  Psalm 37:23, 24
