It is one of my greatest honors to serve on the CSL Nashville Board of Trustees!
My current position as Board Chair is a special honor and responsibility. Up until the time that our founding minister retired the board was chaired by the minister who carried the title of President. With his departure we realized that designating a chair was essential to be effective in calling a new minister and leading our community into the change that was inevitable. When a new Board was seated in Spring of 2019 we continued this practice.
My goal as Board Chair is to support the work of our Center by opening up new lanes of communication with open meetings and the creation of focused ministry teams to promote our mission of growth for this community. We have instituted the “team” concept as an active method to share leadership, spread opportunities to volunteer teams and respond to the needs of the overall community. This Board of Trustees encourages your ideas for the formation of new teams that promote and advance our mission and ideals. We are continuiously working to provide more opportunities for community interaction and fun!
Other responsibilities of our Board of Trustees include the wise use of the loving contributions to our Center. Our goal is to create a safe space for our active members and guests. There are many parts to our fiduciary responsibilities, so the fact that our entire board serves in a voluntary capacity, as they accept this responsibility, makes me extremely proud to be a part of this group. Our intent is to serve with integrity and love. When questions or ideas arise, please reach out to us. We stand with you to create a place of love.
