Announcements for 11 June
Hi Everyone,
Thanks to all who attended the special meeting of the congregation last Wednesday evening. The congregation approved a call to Nathaniel Vroom to serve as our associate pastor. Our presbytery must now approve the call and examine Nathaniel to qualify him for ordination. His approval by presbytery is expected to occur in September. The Vrooms will most likely relocate to Sunnyvale early in November.
VBS volunteers – please join Pastor Goligher in the Fellowship Hall after the morning service for a short organizing meeting.
Youth – see the note below about your next gathering on 23 June 2023 at Elliott's house.
The first post-pandemic workday is scheduled for Saturday, 24 June 2023.
The Fellowship Lunch will be on the fourth Sunday this month, 25 June 2023.
Sincerely,
Elder Lemen
