3.Proposal to have any months with 5 Sundays have a service orientated meeting.
Meeting was extended for 10 minutes. Motion Don / 2nd Shawna
Suggestions from last BM:
- read the steps, traditions and concepts and relate them to service
- instead of changing the format, we could hold a group inventory to see what the group can do to stimulate service participation
- add to the 5th week format “Reflection or Topic or Service as topic”
Motion: “To do a Group Inventory meeting based on pg. 81 in RCA blue book, reading the questions together and reflecting on the in the meeting.” Motion Robin irw Donna / 2nd Amreeta. Approved.
Meeting was extended for 5 minutes. Motion Daven / 2nd Agnes
This will be implemented as a trial.
Minority opinion: the group is running well and to spend 5 meetings on service might not be necessary or focused enough on the newcomers.
Additional comment: our service term is 1 year. This might block couples from being able to do service. This could be a topic of discussion for our next BM.
Motion to adjourn Sunny / 2nd Amreeta. Approved.
Meeting adjourned at 21:25 CET
