New Structures Working Circle gathering
From the Chalmers Commission:
In fulfilling part of its mandate, the Chalmers Commission invites and encourages your participation in the inaugural (and subsequent) meeting(s) of the Structures Working Circle (SWC); the initial gathering took place on Monday, The next meeting will be on Monday, Dec. 12, 2022 at 7 p.m. in MacCallum Hall. If you wish background information on what took place at the first meeting,
please email David King <> and he will send you the notes.
This Circle will consider options with a view to recommending a model of congregational administration/decision making reflective of Chalmers present needs and capacity.
As expressed in, and embraced by, the commitments in the Moving Forward document (endorsed by the congregation 20/10/22), the SWC is a new, time-limited effort focused on designing/recommending a future congregational decision-making model that features the principles of Restorative Practice. As there are both obligated (by United Church polity) and optional components to a congregation’s structure, it is truly important that an array of individuals know about and contribute to this wayfinding
exercise.
Please join the Commission as it supports and shepherds the creation of a distinct “made by Chalmers” system of being and relating!
Thank you!
G. David King,
Commissioner
