In a planning meeting on Tuesday, August 12^th the date was finally set for the first worship services at South Lyon Power & Light: Sunday, September 21^st. Two services are supposed to take place on Sunday morning but the worship times are yet to be determined. In order to meet this deadline a lot of action items must be executed immediately or very soon.

SL Power & Light’s action plan is as follows:

·        Have landlord approval by 8/15/08

·        Get the floor plan to the city of South Lyon, and understand permit needs by 8/15/08

·        Have three additional bids by 8/20/08

·        Find people internally that can do construction work by 8/20/08

·        Select a vendor, decide up on work that can be done internally by 8/22/08

·        Buildout work complete by 9/12/08

·        Have city approval by 9/17/08

·        First worship 9/21/08

But the action plan was not the only topic on last night’s agenda. A lot of discussion took place about the budget. The first version of the budget showed that SL Power & Light would run out of money too soon but after a few adjustments were made SL Power & Light’s financial future looked a lot more promising. SL Power & Light will start a major fundraising campaign in the beginning of 2009 to help fund it’s important ministry in the South Lyon area. The south campus pastor told us that they will need a lot of support from members of All Saints Lutheran Church in Hartland to make this happen.

Help will be needed in various areas :

• Planning and organizing the campaign
• Doing research on donors
• Creating a presentation of the south campus ministry; most likely in form of a documentation on DVD
• Actual fundraising

We were also told by a representative of SL Power & Light that the design of the logo is in its last phase. The logo will be presented very soon.
