Institute Planning When the chapter members reassembled in the large group, Patricia Connor gave a short presentation comparing the projections of the 1985 Coopers & Lybrand study and the data in the 2001 Institute Statistical and Financials Reports. She explained what Coopers & Lybrand had suggested what needed to be done to plan for the future based on the 1985 data. She pointed out that the data presented at this Chapter reflects the planning and actions taken by the Institute and the Provinces since 1985. These actions have brought us to a point where we can both provide for our older sisters and make ministry choices based on the needs of the people to be served. Thursday afternoon and Friday, July 13, were free days. |
