Letter from the Council President:
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Jeremiah 29:11
Jeremiah 29:11
If the last four weeks have taught us nothing else, it is that members of St. Matthew’s if given a job to do have responded with a yes we can attitude.
I would like to thank the preaching ministry for stepping up to the plate or I should say the pulpit and delivering a month of dedicated service to our congregation. They will continue to serve St. Matthew’s until Easter. At that time Pastor Brigette Weier will preside over Ash Wednesday, Easter Vigil and Easter Sunday services.
I can tell you from personal experience it is not an easy task to write and deliver a sermon every Sunday. After preparing several sermons I have a tremendous amount of respect for the clergy that step up and deliver a sermon week after week it’s a tough job. The preaching ministry team has attended classes and training so they are prepared for this challenge. They have dedicated a tremendous amount of time to our congregation and I thank them.
A call committee has been formed and they are preparing to move forward with potential candidates that will make inquiries about St. Matthew’s, thank you to those five members of our congregation for volunteering to set on that committee.
For more information please check out St Matthew’s website, newsletter, Facebook page or your personal e-mails. Council is dedicated to keeping you informed and of course the best way to keep up to date is to come to service on Sunday.
Sunday school starts at 9:00 a.m. we have a coffee and treat table setup just before service. Service begins at 10:00 a.m. and following service we have an adult forum class. Please come and join us.
