The choir has a disciplinary committee of three individuals. Through the period the choir members were generally discipline for the year 2013 - 2014.
CHALLENGES FACED FOR THE PERIODPOOR ATTENDANCE
The attendance was generally low to choir activities.FINANCE
The choirs expenditure was more than her income. Most funding came from the contribution of members. It is so bad that some avoid coming because they might have to spend. The repairs of the drums we use for the thanksgiving came from the contribution of the choir members as well.ECONOMIC SITUATION
Majority of our members do not have good jobs and most are under employed. It came to my notice that the greatest challenge members are facing and which also prevents them from being active is the current economic situation in the country. This is really inhibiting to a great degree the dedication of members. Many have even relocated due to this same issue.
CLOSINGWe thank God for a year well spent. We also appreciate the pastor and the musical commission for their support and guidance through the period.Secretary
