Vision Team News

The Vision Team would like to hear your thoughts, dreams and ideas for the future of our church!

We would like all members and friends to complete an on-line survey which can be found at Click Here. While the survey can be completed at your convenience, there will be lap top computers set up and available in one of the class rooms off of the Fellowship Hall during coffee hour the next couple of Sundays for you to use. Hard copies of the survey are also available. The deadline for completing the survey is has been extended to Sunday, June 5th!

Everyone completing a survey will be given the opportunity to fill out a slip to submit their name to win a gift basket filled with much coveted Gilead Church items. The slips and box can be found on the table just outside the Sanctuary or you can email Sally Fritsche, in the Church Office, with your name and she will enter you.

If you have any questions, please feel free to speak with a member of the Vision Team (Patsy Bjorling, Dan East, Rev. Denise Esslinger, Jill MacLachlan, Sandy Hooker, and Kevin Williams (Chair)). Thank you!
