· The photography sessions for the new church directory have concluded. Fifty families were photographed over the course of four days.
· The June 19 National Alliance on Mental Illness presentation was not well attended but was an excellent program.
· Only 12 children have signed up for Vacation Bible School.

· The church bell restoration will be completed this month.
· Director Anthony Briggs will be invited to the July 12 Council meeting to discuss the future of Cross Roads Camp.

· CEB use agreements with the Mosaic Freeschool and Kids Homeschool Network for 2018-19 were approved.
