We all know that this is a time of some uncertainty for the parish but I think that we are all growing stronger because of this period. Ned and Carol have been unsurpassed in their abilities to guide us through these times. I tend to think that we are not “changing” but are being “transformed” as a parish. I hope to see you at the winter gathering and I will be more than willing to answer any questions that you may have. Tom McGehee 2014 Senior Warden
