Seeking a new minister. Council is liaising with Presbytery to commence the process of finding a new minister to follow on from Rev Geoff Dornan after his retirement in late 2025. 

Office staff. Council agreed that there be two office staff positions, namely Office Manager working 20 hours a week and Administrative Officer working 16 hours a week. The job descriptions are being updated. Cindy Ong will be the Office Manager and the other position will be advertised. Cindy is working alone in the office for 25 hours a week until the second position is filled. 

All the lights in the front carpark will soon be replaced. Adequate lighting is a major safety issue and about half the lights have now failed. 

Susan Akhurst, Paul Chen, Sonia Di Mezza, Keith Hart, Robert James, John Sutton. Apologies: Tarlie Alcock, Jenny Dean, Rev. Geoff Dornan, Jan Sismey.
