Minutes from previous meeting: Mindy moved to accept the March and April minutes, Don seconded the March minutes and Gary seconded the April minutes.

Gary passed out a profit & loss budget vs. actual statement from May 2003 through April 2004. He also passed out a profit and loss overview from May 2004 through April 2005. He proposed changing the "balance budget" to a "deficit budget." Don suggested that he and the finance committee should go back and find out where the $13,720.00 rollover originated. Lynn moved to accept the treasurer’s report and Melanie seconded.

There is a logo competition for a UUFEC chalice design. Karen presented several designs and the board voted the top two that will be displayed in the back of the fellowship for members to vote on.

Minister’s Report: Rev. Debs stated that he received some feedback from the Mother’s Day message and wants to clarify that he is extremely open to comments, concerns, and suggestions, regarding his perspectives.

CUUPS: The board would like a representative of this group to attend next month’s meeting to answer questions.

Committee on Ministry Policies and Procedures: Still pending.

Nominating Committee: Judy Riley has been nominated and accepted the position of vice-president. She has a conflict on the second Monday of each month so the board has changed the meetings to the third Monday of each month. Melanie moved to accept the Nominating Committee’s recommendation and Mindy seconded.

Events Coordinating: Richard Hoffert reminded the Board that we are waiting for action to have a 'one stop shop' for planners of events. Lynn will get in touch with Carrie Keith to see if they can meet with the Events Planning Committee for resolution of this. This is still pending.

Alex Gacic presented a new committee called "Voices of Reason." They will be promoting guest speakers throughout the year.

Lynn proposed that we participate as a group in the Shelter House fundraiser.

The next board meeting will be held on JUNE 21, 2004, AT 6:30 P.M.
