Notice of Called Congregation Meeting

There will be a meeting of the congregation on Sunday, August 10th immediately following worship for the purpose of determining the disposition of approximately five acres of property.
In 2006, St. Jacob’s purchased 5.25 acres from Mr. Jim Haack. The purchase was made with the idea that the church may need an area to use for future construction needs such as providing “fill dirt” for the parking lot. There is an easement (driveway) through the 5.25 acre tract to an adjoining eighteen (18) acre tract, which was recently sold. The buyer of the 18 acre tract approached the Church Council about purchasing the 5.25 acres.
It has been determined that the 5.25 acres is not needed for construction needs at St. Jacob’s. The Church Council is recommending we sell the 5.25 acres for $78,250. The funds will be placed in an account until the Church Council determines the best use of the funds.
