Dear Friends,
I’ve been here a little over a month as Interim Rector and have had the chance to meet many of you on Sunday mornings.
You may have heard that I’ve agreed not only to serve as Interim Rector, but as Interim Youth Leader. I’m looking forward to this. I’ve worked with youth for a lot of years – teaching youth confirmation classes, leading youth groups with my wife, Terry, and even serving for eight years as director of a wilderness tripping camp outside of International Falls, Minnesota!
I’d like you to know about two events I’ve put on the schedule and to invite you to come. Here they are:
Sunday, November 26 (the Sunday after Thanksgiving) – 5 pm in the Youth Lounge: Supper with program and fun to follow. We’ll wrap things up by 7 pm so you can get to homework assignments.
Saturday, December 2, 4:30 – 6:30 pm in the Parish Hall – St. Christopher’s 60th Birthday party. I want to be sure you are there to hear the stories that will be told of the last six decades of the life of this congregation. And I know those planning the event would welcome help from the Youth Group. We’ll talk more about this at our meeting on November 26.
I hope to see you on November 26 – and, of course, in church before that!
My best,
Father Stephen
