The Mission board meets each month to track the progress we are making on number of larger strategic issues that are facing TRM. We met this morning to cover several issues. First was to give the board an update on the financial status of the Mission. Our report: Things are great. Our giving has exceeded our expectations and we are able to replenish our reserve funds for the summer months when we don’t have the funds to cover our expenses. Secondly, we updated the board on our negotiations with Sound Transit, who has voted to extend their Sounder train to Lakewood and picked a route which will go directly behind the Mission. This is a subject which will be around for a few years but we are thinking of how this will affect our services already. Lastly we got an update from our architect on the new Adams Square Family Center, exciting stuff. Thanks to the board for their help and direction. DC
