Officer Nominations

As was mentioned in our December congregational meeting, we are nominating officers this month. During the month of January, please complete the nomination form (available at the Resource Desk) for new officers and either turn it into Debbie Staples in the church office, mail the nomination form to CCC, 1603 SW 122nd St, Gainesville, FL (Attention: Debbie Staples), or you may place the completed form in the offering plate on a Sunday morning before January 31, 2012. If you nominate someone please include your signature and the nominee’s signature.

All nominees will be initially screened for membership and Christian experience requirements by the session. If the session affirms that the nominee qualifies under both categories, they will be sent a letter informing them of their nomination and the subsequent process they can expect. Included in that letter will be a questionnaire that is required to be filled out and returned by a deadline. Once the questionnaire is completed, a personal interview will be set up with the nominee and a small group of officers to discuss the appropriateness and timing of their nomination. If it is determined that they should proceed with the nomination, approved nominees will then receive notification regarding the times and dates for the new officer training classes. Nominees will then complete an 8 week training course and examination in February through March. The exam will be in April.
