Insert Knife and Twist...

You can read here the minutes of the MNS Board of Directors meeting with the details of the decision to list the ULC property.  The minutes read a hidden message to ULC that is unmistakable.  It is as though the BoD were saying, "You lost.  We won.  We will look generous and give you some cash.  But you can't have the organ or furniture.  So there!"  BTW it is not as thought the BoD has any use for it since the mission model there is The Alley and the only use they might have for it is a base for their coffee bar.  I will have to admit that these minutes are an even bigger PR problem than the decision to sell.  The picky way they crafted the resolved to mention only the campus ministry and not the congregation as a whole is just plain pathetic.  I will admit that I had a few misgivings about the terrible treatment of the BoD and DP of MNS in the blogosphere but not after reading the actual minutes.  Shame.  Shame.  Shame.
