We had our meeting yesterday and it was the blessing that we had all been praying for.

We have a membership of 120, we had 4 members overseas or in the middle of Australia, so 115 that could vote, we had 1 invalid vote, 4 No votes, 12 proxy Yes votes and 97 present Yes votes, that was 109 YES votes, which means there was only 2 people that did not vote !!!!
Apparently this is so unheard of, our lawyer told Noel that we are a rarity (to pass a property or Leadership vote we need 75% of total Membership) this is so hard to get, that most churches have changed their constitution to not need such a high percentage. But that didn't matter yesterday as we had a 95% vote. Well done people for stepping up and taking interest in such an important event.

It was such a relief and now the place is just buzzing with excitement for the future and for the first time in 7 long years we can say yes we can look at doing that cause we are STAYING!!!!!!!!

The only sad thing about it was that Mum wasn't here to see it, but I know she has been watching over all of this from above, on her cloud with her angel wings (according to Caitlyn).

A BIG thanks to all our family and friends that have loved and prayed for us over this time. With out that support we would never have been able to survive.

Love you all, you are all very special people.
