It was the first Sunday in August 2019 when you called me as your Interim Pastor. Much has happened since then, but we stand on the same promises today as we did in August 2019.

Memorial Presbyterian Church welcomed me with abundant hospitality on that day and every day since. I take this opportunity to express my sincere appreciation and gratitude for your kindness, your prayers, your generosity, and your dedication to the mission and ministry of this great church.

I’ve had faithful partners along the way, and I will be forever indebted to the men and women who met me here each Sunday morning during the height of the pandemic to ensure that our worship services went uninterrupted. Thank you, Jos, James, Johnny, Sam, Joyce, Howard, Jack, Wendell, Herbert, and Alexis who joined us remotely. Without your help, I would have been lost.

Thank you to all of the ministry teams, the choir, the children and youth, and to all of the officers and members and friends of Memorial Presbyterian Church for affording me the opportunity to serve you for these past two years.

Although I will continue to handle some of the administrative matters of the church,

I bid you farewell as your Interim Pastor. I do so with some with sadness; however, I know that God has ordained and blessed this fellowship of believers with amazing vitality and grace. I know that you will continue to carry on the work of kingdom building and spreading the gospel of Jesus Christ throughout this community and beyond.

The peace of Christ be with you.

Blessings,

Dot
