Lawrence Presbyterian Manor

Do it with Style JUNE 2022

I will be completing two years doing ministry at PMMA-Lawrence. Oftentimes, many pastor colleagues Dinah Dutta, ask me if I would Lawrence Presbyterian go back to being a Manor chaplain full-time parish clergy again. I tell them PMMA-Lawrence has not only become my family but also my parish to serve God. When I was young, I used to write poetry. I used to read, memorize, and narrate poems. I still remember poems written by some of my favorite poets like William Wordsworth: “I wandered lonely as a cloud, that floats on high o'er vales and hills, when all at once I saw a crowd, A host, of golden daffodils; Beside the lake, beneath the trees, Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.”

Residents since 2018, Phil and Pat Anderson happily call Lawrence Presbyterian Manor home.

Especially now when I see the daffodils blooming around us.

Home is Lawrence Presbyterian Manor

Another favorite poetess is Christina Rosette and her poem, Remember me - “Remember me when I am gone away, gone far away into the silent land; when you can no more hold me by the hand.”

For Phil and Pat Anderson, home since 2018 has been Lawrence Presbyterian Manor. But they’ve still managed to “travel” around a bit. In 2018, when the couple first moved in, their duplex wasn’t quite ready but the buyers of their family home were ready to occupy. So, they started their Lawrence Presbyterian Manor journey in an apartment on the fifth floor.

Recently, I found a book of poems that I used to read in our PMMA
