Transition Sunday - the Arrival of Ruth Merriam
Bill Gardei had served us well during the preceding twenty months. His caring, interested manner quickly put us at ease as he prepared us for the challenges ahead The foundation upon which our congregation's robust spiritual health is based was put into place by Sherwood Treadwell, our former pastor. Bill Gardei has now joined Sherwood as Pastor Emeritus. Here you can see the symetry of our pastoral line - smiles and love. So with the support of Sherwood, Bill and the congregation, Ruth continues the process of building a stronger church here on earth to the glory of God. The

aside as our Interim Pastor to make way for Pastor Ruth Merriam.
