WHAT'S HAPPENING!
FAREWELL SUNDAY

It is with sad hearts we wished Rev. LInda Hey a wonderful retirement on Sunday, July 20, 2025.  There were heartfelt words of praise and thanks for all she has done for us.  There was special music, Abby made a final appearance to give a children's message (for the young and young at heart), and Rev. Linda's family and friends were there to celebrate her final sermon.  The service was followed by neighboring where Rev. LInda got a chance to speak to everyone, there were lots of goodies to eat and a lovely cake.  We all wish Rev. Linda a wonderful retirement - we will never forget all that you have done for our "little white church" on Black Point Road.  God Speed!

HAPPY RETIREMENT ELAINE!
HAPPY RETIREMENT ELAINE!

On June 29th we had a special neighboring.  It was a chance to wish our Administrative Assistant, Elaine Sederlund, a happy retirement!  We will miss her and all that she does for us - the normal church duties, but also helping at the Food Pantry, Yuletide Fair, and Church Yard Sale.  We wish you well Elaine, and hope you have fun in your retirement!
