New Constitution

A new constitution was adopted at a Special General Meeting on 8th June 2008.

New Member

We were delighted to welcome Joanne McGeehan into membership at our Sunday service on 8th June 2008.

New Notice Board

We have taken advantage of the Notice Board grant from the General Assembly to get ourselves a lovely new notice board. It is to the right of the front door, above our other notices, and really makes you notice the building.

2008 GA Meetings at Hatfield

Many Midland Union delegates attended these meetings. The centenary of the National Women's League was celebrated, and the Friday was a special Growth Day, with opportunities to discuss all aspects of growth and development. I (Sue Woolley) attended the whole meeting, and Fiona Boyle came along for the Growth Day. Please feel free to ask either of us questions about them.
