begun one year of filling in for her.
He would love to get to know members of
the congregation as soon as possible,
and to help with that task will be trying to
make as many home visits as possible.
Please speak with him directly or call the
church office to schedule a visit, but don’t
be surprised if the church office calls you
first.
