2023 meeting dates/schedule – Judy to send out a schedule of dates and times. Requesting sign-up of when you would like to do devotions. Please respond to July.

2023 Budget – $1k – CLLDL does not have a need to use this money. But it is here if needed.

New Nominations review and vote – Changes of people coming on or going off a committee. There is no one who needs a vote currently.

Committee Detail-Committee Changes – Question asked if there are any gaping holes that need to be filled? One critical committee needs more people.

How to find people? Discussion was held on posting a classified on the website for people interested in joining a committee. Any committee that is not fully staffed the liaison for the committee should write and submit a request for people to join their committee to Judy. She will send it to Christina to post in the Weekly/monthly digest. All are in agreement.

Lay Leaders were asked to mention the openings for conference committees at the close of the church conference.

Please check in basecamp for Team Assignments for committees that are not staffed, need positions.

Clean up the duplicate and expiring service – Discussion held on expiring service for non-conference committee members. 8-year service time is for the conference committee. Rule change may be looked at during a later date.

Do we have a backup for all the work Judy has done? Yes.

Liaison needs to contact the chair of the committee to see if the person is on the committee. If the individual is on two committees, then they will be asked to choose.

Add Kristin Hansen and Luis Nazario to Shelby Arena and basecamp.

Website: Clean-up is still in progress. Dscumc.org – Discussion held on what is on the site. Discussed the classified and where it should be posted.

  • With active support from the Bishop and cabinet, the CLLD team develops a sound leadership culture for DSC clergy and lay leaders by offering a variety of leadership tools and resources. Additionally, this team facilitates the DSC nominations process, end-to-end, which leads up to presenting nominations at the annual conference.
