Bishop Jamison J. Hardy will officiate the Charter Service for Tree of Life, Inverness, FL on Sunday, January 31, 2016 beginning at 10:00 AM. The theme for the service is "New Beginnings". Two retired pastors, The Rev. Paul Sutterer and The Rev. David Raetz, have been serving Tree of Life on alternating weeks.
The congregation meets in the Recreation Building of a city park at 1700 Forest Drive, Inverness, FL. They have all the Sundays reserved, however, somehow one Sunday got double-booked and they had to scramble a bit. A Tree of Life member wrote an article about this experience and it
was recently published in the opinion page of the Citrus County Chronicle.
