(updated 10/23/09)
A special charge conference was held on
Tuesday, June 10, 2008 at 7:30 PM at FCUMC by our District Superintendent for the
purpose of considering and voting on a proposal from Cheltenham UMC to merge
all assets including money, property and membership into the Fox Chase
UMC. The administrative board
members present, which was more than the quorum required, voted for the merger,
which took place effective July 1st 2008. Some of the FCUMC members
were present at Cheltenham’s June 22, 10:30 am service where they invited all
Cheltenham members to join us at FCUMC in combined service to Christ. The last Church Service at Cheltenham
took place on the 29th of June. On July 6th there was a single church
service at FCUMC and that was a welcoming time for our new members at
10am. A luncheon followed. There were over 100 people at the
church service and 16 people in the combined choir. The Boards of Trustees of both Churches are working together
to iron out the details of merger. On October 9, 2008 we received the
incorporation papers from the state of PA and are now officially merged with
the Cheltenham UM church. We will
now proceed to integrate Cheltenham funds, property and membership into Fox
Chase UMC. We are presently
soliciting buyers for the Cheltenham Church Property consisting of the Church
and School building, a parking lot and a parsonage at 317 Central Ave. in Cheltenham
Village, PA 19012. Some interest has been shown. Contact the Real Estate Agent-

Web Master Committee Experimental
Project-
We are in the process of trying
something new. At this location
there will be links to sound clips of various items of interest related to the
church. Our first experiment will
be a voice introduction by Pastor Krall followed by a piano selection from the
concert given by Dr. June Grutzmacher in the fall of 2008 at FCUMC. Total listening time is 5 minutes. There are two scenarios that may happen
depending on the settings in the operating system and the speed of your
internet link etc. 1) When you click on the link (Click Here to Hear”) the file
will begin to play in the Media Player.
It may pause a couple of times in order to catch up with the
download. If you persevere with
this you can replay it in its uninterrupted entirety. 2) The wave (wav) file will have to be downloaded into a
temporary directory. (approx. 27 meg.)
The computer will do this automatically if you answer “yes” to the
question that pops up on the screen.
You will need a fast internet link such as FIOS or Comcast or you will
wait all day. You may then click
on the downloaded file and it will open up and play in Microsoft’s Media
player. Be patient while it loads
in. It may take a minute or
so. Media player is included in
the Windows XP and Vista operating systems and must configured to play wav
files on auto play. This is the
default setting when the operating system was first installed so if you haven’t
made a change it is probably O.K.
If you have any comments or questions let’s hear from you at the church
E-Mail link given below.
