Members Present: Fr. Tom, Wendy Brys, Cal DeLine, Connie Reid-Guffey, Liz Hughes, Veronica Jimenez, Paul Lanczki, Paul Mueller, Kenny See, Kathy Wickham, Bonnie Zenk.
The meeting started at 7:00pm with an opening prayer by Fr. Tom. The February minutes were read and approved.
Building & Grounds: The last estimate for the air conditioning for the church has come in at a little under $100,000. The project will go forward. The updates and remodeling of the food pantry will begin this summer. The food pantry will temporarily be moved to the church office.
Evangelization Formation: We had a discussion on how to create an Adrian Catholic Community by including St. Mary's, St. Joseph's, Siena Heights University, Adrian College and the Adrian Dominican Sisters. Paul Lanczki is continuing to work on developing an interview for parishoners about their faith life. Possibly including them giving a witness during mass or having it printed in the bulletin.
Activities Committee: The Friday night stations and soup suppers have been well received. The St. Patrick's Day dance was a great success with everyone having a great time. We are working on compiling a list of all the volunteers so we can mail invitations for the Appreciation Dinner in October.
A closing prayer was given by Fr. Tom and the meeting was adjourned at 8:40pm. The next meeting will be April 25th at 7:00pm.
Respectfully Submitted,
Cal DeLine
