Friends gathered with a time of centering and a query from WYM Queries.

Minutes of the March meeting

were approved, with the following corrections:
1. Last item on the calendar: theme of the retreat should be “Living . . .”
2. Second item under New Business: It is not the Art Brooks family that will use the Jones Meetinghouse.

Treasurer’s Report – Dale Hayes – attached to these minutes

Two reports were presented. The first is a regular report against the approved budget. That report was approved.

The second is a revised budget reflecting the difference in assessments for both yearly meetings because of a reduction in our regular membership and changes in ways of calculating assessments. Our goal is to meet the basic budget by August 1, but the larger amount of $3555.75 in the revised budget would meet all budgeted discretionary contributions.

Ministry & Counsel – Patricia Thomas

The committee met April 11 and discussed health of members and details of the spring retreat.

The report was approved.

Old Business

Retreat Plans – Patricia Thomas
Bob Powell will send out the complete schedule with the minutes.

Richard Coleman will bring coffee & juice; Canby Jones will bring fruit; and
Lenna Mae Gara will bring soup for Saturday lunch.

OVYM Executive Committee – Dale Hayes
On March 29 the committee discussed contributions to various Friends
organizations, the plan to send yearly meeting teens to a camp in Alaska, and the proposed “covenanted” budgeting.

Campus Friends Meeting will use the covenanting process to arrive at a covenanting figure by June 15. Dale Hayes will prepare a statement on the other issues for consideration at the May meeting for business.

Friendly eights with Wilmington Friends Church
Those wishing to participate in Friendly Eights with Wilmington Friends should
give their names to Patricia Thomas.

Minute on Corporal Punishment
Copies of the approved minute on corporal punishment have gone to Richard Mitchell of
OVYM, the WC Education Department, the Peace Resource Center and WYM.

The meeting concluded with a period of silent worship.
