NOT JUST A CHURCH BUSINESS MEETING

Want to know where Rooftop is going? Learn more about our vision and pray for the future at our twice-yearly State of the Roof business meeting. At this meeting the finance and treasury teams will be presenting a new budget for approval, for the new fiscal year, which begins on May 1. See Proposed Budget

We gather in the Community Center for a SOTR pot-luck meal before the meeting. We'll provide the main dish. If your last name starts with A-K, bring a side dish. If it starts with L-Z bring a dessert to share. Childcare will be provided during the meeting.

By Law Admendments

We will also be voting on some bylaw admendments. The elders are proposing that the requirements to join the Voting Roster be altered. The Voting Roster is that body of people at Rooftop that votes on elders, budget, and bylaws.

See Bylaw Changes Here

Currently, the requirements for the Voting Roster are that people be 16 years old, Christian, and attendees for six months. In an effort to empower members who have made a commitment to Rooftop as their church home, we are proposing a requirement that all persons on the Voting Roster be members at Rooftop, and living consistent with the goals, values, purpose, and theology of the church, as defined by the elders. We believe that those who have made a formal commitment to Rooftop as their church home and are most familiar with the church should be the ones determining its leadership, future, and finances.

If passed, these amendments would not affect voting until the fall State of the Roof meeting, in October. The bylaws require us to make proposed amendments public at least two months in advance of congregational meetings, so that people can have the chance to review those changes and discuss them with their leaders.

We would be honored and humbled to discuss this possible change, if you so choose. Please review the proposed amendments and email Elder President Blake Ahrens if you'd like to discuss further.
