Ministerial Vote on Sunday, March 3

What an exciting time to be a part of Eliot Chapel! On Sunday, our congregation will gather at 12:30 pm in the Sanctuary to vote on the recommendation from the Eliot Chapel Ministerial Search Committee to call Reverend Krista Taves as our new settled Lead Minister. We want to let you know all of the ways you can participate in this communal process.

 

Participate in the Ministerial Vote:

 

IN-PERSON

In-person voting will take place in the Sanctuary on March 3 at 12:45 pm.

Following the second service, sandwiches and drinks will be served in Adams Hall. At 12:30, people may begin re-entering the Sanctuary, after checking in at the Board table located in the hallway between Adams Hall and the Sanctuary. Members will be given a piece of paper that will serve as their ballot. 

(Non-members may attend the meeting but cannot cast a vote.)

Childcare for those kindergarten-aged and younger will be provided in the Nursery until 1:30 pm. 

 

ONLINE

Online voting will take place on Zoom on March 3. 

Click the button below to join the Zoom call. Zoom voting will be “anonymous” to the extent that only two board members will be tallying the votes as they are cast in a chat that only the hosts can see.

If there are multiple members in a household on a signal Zoom call, each may cast a vote in the chat. 

We ask that:

  • Only members of Eliot attend the online meeting
  • Everyone be logged in by 12:30 to go through a check-in process
  • Ensure your displayed Zoom name matches the membership roster. Here's info from Zoom about changing your display name.

Once all in-person and online members have cast their votes, the ballots will be tallied by the Board of Trustees. Once Reverend Krista has been informed of the results, the outcome will be announced to the Congregation.
