The Leadership Board (our One Board) represents the interests of all Oak Lawn United Methodist Church members through Church Governance.\u00a0 As such every Church Council member wears the hat of Staff Parish Relations Committee, the Trustees and the Finance Committee. The task as leaders is to carry out the vision of the Pastor and goals for our church. The One Board is supported by task groups to bring the mission, vision, goals and strategies of OLUMC to life.\u00a0 We need everyone to be a part of our church’s servant ministries.<\/em><\/span><\/h5>\n
