To be able to vote you have to be on the electoral roll of the church.

Our Electoral Roll Officer, Sheilla Kooijman will be happy to inform you about the process. You can contact her at sheila_kooijman@xs4all.nl.

Can I stand for any office?

Yes! You are very welcome to stand. You can stand for Churchwarden or Council Member. For the Church Council, we will propose 5 seats be reserved for All Saints, 5 for Holy Trinity, 1 for Grace Church and 1 for Anglican Church Zwolle.

David or Grant will be able to inform you about the office and process and have the necessary forms at hand.

How and where can I get more information?
About one week before the AGM you will receive the agenda and agenda papers by email. If you have any question, you can contact your wardens.
