Pastor Ann, Merlene Brockway, and Theresa Jones will be attending the Synod Assembly. We will be departing on Wednesday, April 26th because Pastor Ann has been selected to serve on the Synod Council and will finish out the term formerly held by Rev. Tammy Heimgartner who passed away a few months ago. Synod Council will be meeting on Thursday, April 27th.

Rev. Dr. Anne Palma has crafted a proposed resolution to be voted on at the Synod Assembly (April 28 - 30, 2023) in support of our transgender siblings in Christ.

Pastor Ann will be adding her name to this.

If you have thoughts regarding who you would like nominated for Bishop, or any other issues, including the proposed resolution, please feel free to share with us. There will be a time for discussion during our fellowship time on April 16th and April 23rd.
