An Invitation from Pastor Phil & Pastor Leigh

Greetings Friends,

Pastor Leigh and I are incredibly excited to begin ministry with you on July 6th.

As we begin this new journey together, we would like to invite all in the congregation and community to "Getting to Know Us / Visioning" Sessions on either Thursday, July 17th or Thursday, July 31st at 6 p.m. Our hope is that you can attend one of these meetings.

We will meet outside by the gazebo in the town park behind the Fellowship Center. (Bring outdoor chairs.) If it rains, the plan will be to meet in the Chapel in the Fellowship Center.

At these gatherings, Leigh and I will share a little bit about ourselves, ask some questions about your dreams and visions for this congregation, and help each of us get to know you better.

We will finish our gatherings at 7:30 p.m.

Blessings, Pastor Phil Richards
