JUNE OFFICE HOURS
This week we have been celebrating Peter Kiteley’s well-deserved retirement as the Church’s Office Administrator and Building Co-ordinator. But, when someone is as integral to the community as Peter is, it is not an easy thing just to let them leave. While the search team continues to interview for our new Office and Building Administrator, you may notice some changes around EMUC.
Starting on June 3, there will be new office hours and some familiar people covering the office.
Until further notice, the
office will be open from 9:30 am to 4:30 pm, Monday to Friday.
June 17 Peter
June18-20 Sylvia
June 21 Peter
June 24-27 Peter
The July schedule will be posted later.
