John and the Vestry expressed their gratitude for the service of Andrea Pugh who retires this month as Treasurer after 8 years of valued service. Her “calculator” will be passed to our new parish treasurer, Barb England, at our Annual Meeting.
They also thanked retiring vestry members, Senior Warden Bruce England and Jr. Warden Ron Himmel for their contributions to the parish during their tenure.
Fr. John recapped the Christmas services, and thanked all who helped to make the worship services joyful. Unfortunately, attendance numbers were down by 50%.

Masks are required for a time until this spike diminishes.
