3. Staffing Changes

A painful but necessary part of the process to better align our operating budget in this COVID-19 environment forced us to encourage our staff to consider voluntary separation packages. We have been overwhelmed by God's grace as nine people have offered their positions in obedience and sacrifice. Accepting their gifts means we do not have to make further layoffs. We ask you to join us in praying peace and gratitude over these men and women. Please click HERE to see the details of these staffing changes.
