Trinity Protestant Reformed Church
Hudsonville, Michigan
Classis East met in regular session on Wednesday, September 10, 2008 at the Trinity PRC, Hudsonville, MI. Each church was represented by two delegates; Rev. R. Kleyn was the chairman for this session. Special welcome was given to the delegates from Providence PRC, which sent delegates to classis for the first time since their organization.
The business for this session proved to be routine. Reports from committees, construction of a classical appointment schedule for Grace PRC and Providence PRC, were handled with dispatch.
Classis did have an appeal from a brother, which classis declared not to be legally before it on the ground that the consistory whose decision was being appealed was not informed by the appellant of this appeal.
Expenses of classis amounted to $750.80. Classis will meet next on Wednesday, January 14, 2009 at the Grandville PRC.
Respectfully submitted,
Jon J. Huisken, Stated Clerk
