  A message from The Rev. Marcia Hunter:

  There has been much happening and changing since 1963 when the building in which we worship and share fellowship was consecrated. Certainly that is true in my life: marriage, children, death of parents, several moves, various jobs and ordination: and the list goes on ... probably in your lives as well. And that is the personal side, while in the nation and world, including our city and state, and in the Church, there have been major challenges, painful struggles and hard-won accomplishments. I urge and encourage you to recall the years since then, with all the sorrows and joys you have experienced or know about, and to seek the blessings of those years. Then, with thankful hearts and minds celebrate the fifty-five years with a special gift of thanksgiving; to the NEST Crisis Care, to God's Pantry Food Shelf or to our budget. We are still here and we are moving forward as God's people in the world.

  With joy and blessings!
  Mother Marcia
