A NOTE FROM OUR RECTOR Friends,
I would like to thank the Rev. Jocelyn Bell for serving as our supply priest this Sunday morning. I have known Jocelyn for three years now, and I have been thankful for her presence and ministry. I ask that you give her a warm welcome.
I will be away from the office next week. Please pray for my family and me as we travel. We are excited about time together to rest, relax, and catch up with our extended family. Should any pastoral needs arise, please let our church office know as soon as possible. Our pastoral team is ready to assist you in any way they can.
God bless you, Fr. Quinn+
