1.  Maywood Community Church and organizations within 
     the church will have priority in the use of all 
     church facilities, regardless of requests for use 
     by persons or organizations outside Maywood 
     Community Church, provided, however, that in the event 
     an organization outside of Maywood Community Church 
     has duly arranged for use of Church facilities, that 
     arrangement shall stand over a subsequent request 
     for use of the same facilities by an organizaton 
     within Maywood Community Church.

 2.  A Church calendar shall be maintained upon which 
     shall be shown all scheduled events, so that avail-
     ability of church properties may be ascertained at 
     all times.

 3.  We ask that there be no abuse of these facilities.  
     Facilities will be returned to their original order 
     after the event.

MEMORIAL GIFTS POLICIES
        

Memorial gifts may be given in a number of ways:
        

1) Designated giving-which goes for something specific
   designated by the family or friends.  

2) Undesignated-this is recorded as the others in the 
   Memorial Book but goes into the regular Church account 
   to meet normal expense.  

3) Building Fund.

   Each gift will be recorded in the Memorial Book and no 
   plaques will bre placed on the furnishing donated unless 
   requested by the donor(s).

   Alist of items which can be used in the Church will be 
   kept by the Memorial Book committee and can be referred 
   to by those who want to give for something specific.  
   Items can be added to this list by the suggestion of any 
   member.

        

PASTOR'S POLICY CONCERNING WEDDINGS
        

The Church can provide a needed ministry in helping to
prepare couples for marriage.  Those who inquire con-
cerning a wedding ceremony at Maywood will be asked to 
become engaged in a program of careful preparation for 
marriage.


   Both members and non-members are asked to do the following: 
 
(1)  Give the pastor at least 60 dayes notice before
     the date of the ceremony.  
(2)  Agree to have at least
     two sessions of pre-marital guidance before this date.


Non-members are also asked to give a donation of an
unspecified amount for the use of the church building.

Both members and non-members are asked to leave a fee
for the janitor due to the extra cleaning done.  The
Church organist or pianist should be a private arrange-
ment and arranged in advance.

Weddings are part of the Church's ministry and thus the
pastor performs them as part of his calling requiring
no fee.

The pastor reserves the right to refuse to marry those
whom, in good conscience, he prefers not to marry.
        

LADIES' COUNCIL
        

The Ladies' Council was organized March 16, 1938 as an
organization of Christian women dedicated to the spiritual,
financial and physical support of Maywood Community
Church.

        

YOUTH GROUPS
        

Within Maywood Church we have two youth groups, the
junior youth group consisting of grades 6, 7, and 8 and
the senior youth group.  We strive to present the follow-
ing ten goals for a scriptural approach to youth ministry:
 1.  To help youth find a personal commitment to Jesus
     Chirst as Lord and Savior.
 2.  To help youth become disciples and lead thm into the
     spriitual experience which in turn progresses into
     mature discipleship.
 3.  To challenge youth to express in speech and action
     God's love as it is revealed in Jesus Christ.
 4.  To lead youth to read and respond to the Bible in a
     personal way and to train them in a serious con-
     frontation with the Word of God.
 5.  To help youth gain skill in prayer and meditation
     and to pioneer a personal devotional life.
 6.  To help young people develop a life style based on
     the gospel of Jesus Christ.
 7.  To help youth recognize the Church as Christ's body
     and nurture identification with it.
 8.  To confront youth with their responsibility and re-
     lationship to their community, their country and
     their world.
 9.  To support youth in understanding relationships with
     parents and family and to help them develop a capa-
     city for respect and intimacy in the home.
10.  To help youth understand and accept themselves and 
     gain competence in dealing with personal problems
     of identity and vocation.

By stressing these 10 goals, we will help the youth of
Maywood today become the leaders of our Church tomorrow.
