    Discussed Secretariat financial status. There was general agreement that we have more weekends than we can support.

    Steve Ryder moved, with second from Helen that Jennie (as Secretariat Representative) be authorized to make the following motion at the next Secretariat meeting:
    "The Austin Convocation supports and encourages the Secretariat to transition to a two weekend per year schedule, effective as soon as we can cancel scheduled weekends with Camp Allen.

    It is further suggested that teams be open to any qualified Cursillo graduate (i.e., still doing Rule of Life, especially Reunion Group) in the Diocese."

    The motion passed with unanimous support. It was noted that four of those present currently serve on the Secretariat.
