Dear Companions in Christ,

It takes a village to coordinate and implement a worship service for the ordination and consecration of a bishop!   Thank you so much for your hard work. Each one of you were an important part of the large holy puzzle to plan and execute Saturday's beautiful liturgy. 

The most important things are that Bishop Mello was ordained / consecrated, God was praised, and we praised God together!

With appreciation,
