We are Connected for Community
We were never intended to do life all alone, but rather in the love and company of God and each other.
The following items are recommendations from the JCBC Worship Report.
These recommendations were presented at a Special Called Church Conference on Wednesday night, September 21st at 6:00 p.m.
All recommendations passed unanimously.
Recommendation #1
The JCBC Worship Implementation Teams, in conjunction with the Budget Impact Subcommittee, Stewardship Committee, and Deacon Body recommends entering into contract with Clark (a worship design & technologies company) for the implementation of JCBC’s new multiple worship venue design, as presented in detail, at a projected cost of $1,635,872.00.
Recommendation #2
The JCBC Worship Implementation Teams, in conjunction with the Budget Impact Subcommittee, Stewardship Committee, and Deacon Body recommends the approval of a capital campaign for $3.2 Million. The campaign will be two-fold in purpose. Namely, it will equally fund the development of JCBC’s new multiple worship venue design, and significantly reduce the congregation’s outstanding debt. Pledging for this campaign will begin in early 2017, for a three year giving period starting in April of 2017, continuing through March of 2020.
Recommendation #3
The JCBC Worship Implementation Teams, in conjunction with the Budget Impact Subcommittee, Stewardship Committee, and Deacon Body recommends that Mr. Tom Jack be and is hereby appointed as Campaign Chair, and that he is to assume overall leadership of the campaign, with full authorization to appoint a campaign leadership team.
Recommendation #4
In anticipation of the need to provide financing for the property improvements to the Sanctuary and Gymnasium recommended for the implementation of JCBC’s new multiple worship venue design, the JCBC Worship Initiative Teams in conjunction with the Budget Impact Subcommittee, Stewardship Committee, and Deacon Body recommend that the Treasurer and Executive Director of Operations be authorized to negotiate the terms and conditions for borrowing funds up to an amount of $1,500,000.
The borrowed funds will be used for the purpose of financing the approved enhancements for the Sanctuary and Gymnasium and repaid from funds received through the capital campaign.
All terms and conditions will be approved by the Stewardship Committee prior to the execution of any agreements and documents. Upon approval of the Stewardship Committee the Treasurer and/or Assistant Treasurer will be authorized to execute any and all documents required to enter into the loan agreement.
