Voting members will elect a new Board and Nominating Committee and vote on some bylaw changes. More information will be available in the coming weeks, but please mark your calendars. The meeting will be on Zoom in the same room as worship and in the Sanctuary. Please keep an eye out for details about voting which will be sent in mid-May.
The East Shore Nominating Committee has completed the slate of candidates for next year’s Board of Trustees and Nominating Committee positions. This slate will be voted on at the June 7, 2026 Congregational Meeting.
The positions in bold print are up for election. The others are informational, to provide a complete list of members who will serve during the next church year. All positions have a one year term with a max number of consecutive terms except for Trustees at Large who have a 2 or 3 year term.

2026-2027 Nominating Committee Slate
In addition to the slate of candidates from the Nominating Committee, our church bylaws allow Nominations by Petition. Members in good standing may nominate themselves or others for any position up for election. To do so, signatures of at least 15 members of the congregation must be emailed to [email protected] at least 21 days in advance of the June 7 Congregational Business Meeting along with a signed statement from each prospective nominee of willingness to serve if elected and the position sought. The deadline this year is May 17, 2026. No additional nominations will be accepted after that date.
Questions about the election process may be directed to the current members of the 2025-2026 Nominating Committee: Mark Norelious, Mike Stunes, Caroline Haessley, Grace Colton, and Karin Pierce at [email protected].
Please join us in thanking all our candidates and current Board and Committee members for their dedication to our church!
