  • Wednesday House Fellowship Childcare
    • We will continue using volunteers for this role, and can re-evaluate if needed later.
    • As a principle, we’d like to keep Church work filled by volunteers from the body instead of paying someone.
  • Stream Quality Upgrades
    • Derek is making changes and trying some new things with the stream to improve the overall quality, with a focus on music.
    • We have backup options (beyond simply fiddling with things to improve quality) that we will move to if we don’t create improvement in February.
