The candidates voted in for Elder are Jake Gros and Jim DeBlock to fill the retiring positions of Wisner Buckbee, Hans Persoon and Mike VanPelt. The candidates voted in for Deacon are Greg Vellenga, Craig Verblaauw and Bobby Matuszewski to fill the three retiring positions of David Amels, Dakota DeVries and Ed Dykshoorn. Please pray for these leaders as they answered the call to serve these positions faithfully. We also thank the retiring council members for their service. Elders and Deacons will be installed in these positions on June 22nd.
