Summer of Renewal
Our
pastors will be on sabbatical this summer, returning on August 3. The sabbatical is a time for personal
and spiritual renewal for our ministers and a time for our church to
grow in ministry as members take on greater responsibility -- we are
calling this our "Summer of Renewal." Dave and Susan's plans include
study, travel, rest, and "worship from the pew." They will
periodically post photos and information about their adventures on the Summer of Renewal page (NOW UPDATED!).
