The first reading of newly elected officers for Imelda SDA Church were about to begin. Everyone is alert as to who the new set of officers will be. This election is I think very unique as compared to other elections from the past. What makes it unique is that the tenure for this set of new officers would be for two straight years as well as the technicalities that all board members should not be elected as member of the special and nominating committees. I find it odd that when the board presented to the body this new rule, nobody objected and it was unanimously agreed by everyone. But when the election for the special nominating committee is well underway, then I’ve heard some complaints about the tenure which is very long. Maybe it took them some time before they realized what will be the impact of what they have voted at. I am not that concern with these issues because first of all, I am not a member of the church.
