Staff Parish Relations Committee (SPRC)
The Staff Parish Relations Committee of Oakdale United Methodist Church consists of the following people:
Jane Boston (Chairperson)
Laurene Nichols
Peter Downey

Beverly Forsberg
Lisa Ackley
The purpose of the SPRC Committee, as defined by the guidelines of the General Board of Discipleship, is to perform some of the functions of a personnel office or Human Resources department in other organizations. However, we are to focus our attention on God.
We are to operate under God's leadership in the tensions between staff and congregational interests, which includes dealing with both the celebrations and disappointments inherent in any human family and church. The primary responsibility of the SPRC is to work with the staff so that the mission of the church is realized.
The committee wants to welcome the church family to utilize us based in the above description to address any issues or concerns you may have regarding our church. We currently meet monthly and encourage you to speak to any member at any time with your comments, questions or concerns.
