Announcements for 16 October

Hi Everyone,

This Sunday Dr. Jonathan Master will teach Sunday school and preach in both the morning and evening worship services.  Dr. Master is this year’s Women’s Retreat speaker.  He is the president of Greenville Presbyterian Theological Seminary and a minister in the PCA. 

Pastor Goligher recently provided to the session a report of a large range of activities that he accomplished during his sabbatical (I suspect he may provide a summary in his January report to the congregation).  One of his writing projects was a brief article for Reformation21 on the word “Abomination” (29 August).

Sincerely,
Elder Lemen
