The Branch Leadership team is requesting one of our members or a fellowship group to coordinate teams for the decorations for this celebration and catered dinner after Mass. If you are interested, email: phoenixbranch@cityofthelord.org
We do need everyone to register for this as we will be catering dinner, and need a headcount. Guests are welcome.
Thanks to all of you who returned your leader canvassing forms. It was clear you took this to prayer; we saw some unified direction in your discernment. We are in the process of reaching out to potential new leaders to ask them to begin to pray if God is calling them to leadership. We’ve also identified some timing issues. A number of the current branch leaders began their service at the same time, which means they should be leaving service roughly the same time. Losing a lot of experience from the leadership team at once creates a hardship on the entire leadership team. We plan to stagger the timing of brining on new leaders, and the departure of former leaders to avoid this hardship. We plan to have the first round of new leaders in place before the end of the year. Please continue to pray for our current and future branch leaders.
Registration is now open for the COTL Teen Retreat. It is open from 7th-12th grade students. Any questions, please reach out to Lisa Flynn @ lisamarieflynn@hotmail.com
