“Representatives from the Albany Presbytery Trustees and TE Larry Greenwold, Moderator of the Tribes Hill Presbyterian Church were present to answer any questions.  The Presbytery acted to grant the congregation of the Tribes Hill Presbyterian Church permission to sell one vacant lot with the funds from the sale to be used for the general operating expenses of the congregation.

The Committee on Nominations recommended and the Albany Presbytery acted to elect Samantha Brewer (Hoosick Falls) to serve as the Albany Presbytery Young Adult Advisory Delegate (YAAD) to the Synod of the Northeast Assembly that meets in October 2016.”
