Session Highlights
May 11, 2015
It was with great joy that the Session received the
2015 Confirmation Class. The two Confirmands,
received by Profession of Faith in Jesus Christ,
were Corah Jade Hawk and Ruby Grace
Waggoner, both in the Seventh Grade at the Junior
High School and longtime participants in many
ministries through Hill Church. Corahs parents
are Dennis and Sarah Hawk and Rubys parents
are Michael and Mary Waggoner. We pray Gods
Blessing upon Corah and Ruby as they grow in
Christs faith, hope and love!
Two motions were approved by Session from
the Administration and Stewardship And Mission
Support Committees respectively:
Motion: That nine stained glass windows plus one
panel of the Gethsemane window be repaired by
Standard Insulating at an approximate cost of
$11,358. This cost includes recapping the new
storm windows as needed. The funding will be
taken from a special campaign and the stained
glass window fund ($5,041.54). If additional
funding is needed, funds will be taken from a
combination of the Building Maintenance Fund,
the Sherwin estate Fund, and the Memorial Fund,
as determined by the Stewardship Committee.
Motion: To give 40% of the Pentecost
denominational offering to Butler County Alliance
for Children to be used to provide services
designed to reduce the trauma of children who
have been victims of child abuse.

Barry and Shelly Dawson will be in the states during June, July, and
August. As of May 15th, their itinerary was unsettled. But they
will arrive on the West coast first to visit churches. Son, Brad, will
be getting married in Southern California and daughter, Bethany,
will graduate from the University of British Columbia in
Vancouver. The Dawsons will also be attending community health
evangelism training for a week. You will be alerted if they travel to Beaver-Butler
Presbytery.
There are a few changes for the Vacation Christian Camps. Please note that Sports Camp One on
Tuesday, June 16th will be held from 1:30pm-5:30pm at Alameda Park. The children will need to
have lunch prior to coming to Church where they will be driven over to Alameda Park by the Camp
Leaders. The cost of the camp is still $5. Gods Great Creation will now be held on Monday,
Tuesday, and Wednesday, June 15-17 from 5:30-7:30 p.m. This camp will include dinner and due to Marsh
Millers generosity, the children will not have a registration fee. Those children participating in Sports Camp
One are encouraged to stay for Gods Great Creation! The Camp Leaders will bring the children over to the
Jaycee Shelter following the Sports Camp. If you have any questions, please contact Elean Heist in the Church
Office.
