PRINCIPLES OF PARLIAMENTARY PROCEDURE
Courtesytoall‐Oneitematatime‐MajorityruleRespecttherightsoftheminority‐Justiceforall‐Partialityfornone
“For us as Presbyterians, parliamentary law is a tool we use which is a servant to our
theological understanding of the purpose of a governing body: to seek God’s will for our actions in the world, as we witness to our faith in Jesus Christ.”
- from “Parliamentary Procedures in the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.)”
by Marianne L. Wolfe.
HISTORY OF HONEY CREEK PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH, NEW CARLISLE,
OHIO Honey Creek Presbyterian Church was established in 1804 with a log cabin building located in what is now the New Carlisle Cemetery. It is the oldest continuing church in Clark County. The current structure built in 1832 has gone through some modifications along with the addition of the Memorial Room to the back. In 2003 renovations were made to the sanctuary in preparation for celebrating our 200th anniversary. Over the past two years, the sanctuary lighting has been replaced, the stained glass windows along the east side have been renovated, and a lift has been added to the Christian Education building. The Christian Education building was constructed in 1963. The vision of Honey Creek Church is to bring members of the church and community closer to Christ. A “Beds for Babies” program started in 2006 has distributed over 100 cribs to families in need. We have an active outreach ministry in Haiti and will be taking a mission trip in June of this year. We actively participate in our local, ecumenical Bethel Churches United Food Pantry.

REDRESSING THE BALANCE OF TEACHING AND RULING ELDERS FOR YEAR 2015-2016 o As of December 31, 2014, there were sixty-six (66) resident teaching elders active in the
life of the presbytery. (According to the By-laws, honorably retired teaching elders are excused from presbytery meetings, therefore HR teaching elders are considered in the calculations only when they are serving a congregation [interim, temporary supply], are members of a presbytery committee and/or attend at least one presbytery meeting per year.) (starting page S – 12)
o At the end of this stated meeting and by presbytery rule, there will be sixty-four (64) ruling elder commissioners from member congregations, three (3) commissioned ruling elders, and four (4) ruling elders from Leadership Council and chairs of presbytery committees for a total of seventy-one (71) ruling elders with voice and vote.

In prior meetings the Administrative Commission and the Session jointly developed a list of tasks to complete in order to call a Pastor Nominating Committee and, as the Commission approaches its second anniversary, we discussed possible timetables. The Session and Karen are planning for a conversation to review the Ruling Elders’ memories of the relationship between the congregation and pastors. (Note: on February 7 three members of the Administrative Commission attended the conversation and gained appreciation of the history of the congregation, the called Teaching Elders, and the community they serve.) Sandy closed the meeting with prayer. Minutes prepared by Buzz Reed

MINUTES Administrative Commission – Southminster PCUSA
Sunday, February 22, 2015
Attending: TE Lee Dorsey, RE Donna Courtney, TE Bob Wade, RE Barbara Wilson, TE Linda Niece. The meeting opened with prayer at 12:30 pm. Item 1: Listening sessions: the group shared impressions, information and insights from listening groups thus far. Listening groups have included the Youth, the ordained staff, presby groups and mixed groups. Also discussed was the annual congregational meeting which took place earlier today. Item 2: Separation ethics: the issue of separation ethics was discussed. The Committee on Ministry has sent correspondence to TE Megan Davis regarding the issue of continued contact with members of Southminster congregation. The AC to present to encourage session members to set an example in this important aspect and fro session members, as leaders of the church to teach and encourage members of the congregation to do the same. Item 3: Bridge Builders program. In the information flier from this program are listed 14 common problems facing congregations. As they were read through, we checked off individually any that would apply to the current situation at SPC. Each of us thought at least seven, and some thought a lot more, applied to our charge here and now. Question: What are the open-ended issues that Session can address? - Session can direct COM to continue working with Megan on Separation ethics - The COM liaisons, Joe Hookey and Bruce Bueschel to educate the Session on specifics
of separation ethics. Also propose ways to share information with the congregation on that as well.
- Present to Session for their consideration and discernment the Bridge Builders program. This, we agreed would have to be presented in an innocuous manner as one of several or many options to address to causes of division and disorder and discern constructive resolution of the issues. Suggest that a ‘blue ribbon committee’ comprised of members from differing camps, study and report recommendations to session.
There are a small number of remaining listening sessions, all of them important to our work. These should all be completed by the next scheduled meeting of the Administrative Commission. Upcoming business: SPC Session Meeting March 9. Barb and Lee attending. Next scheduled meeting of the AC is Tuesday, March 24 to be held at the Presbytery Office. Respectfully submitted, Donna Courtney
