Posted October 13th, 2007

Please join First Congregational United Church of Christ for worship this Sunday, October 14 at 1:00 PM.

We are pleased to announce the arrival of our new Interim Pastor, the Reverend Douglas Clark, who will be our preacher and worship leader. Rev. Clark’s sermon is entitled “The Welfare of the City” from the familiar words of the prophet Jeremiah. Grace Bassler, who served as the chairperson of the Interim Search Committee, will be providing leadership in the opening of our worship to include a Litany of Welcome for our new Interim Pastor. We welcome the return of Dennis Turner, who will serve as Guest Musical Director. Polly Gordon will conduct the First Church Choir in the offering of an anthem for the occasion.

Following worship (and a short coffee hour), there will be a Christian Nurture at 2:30 pm sponsored by the Care of Parish Commission. All are encouraged to attend this opportunity to enter into conversation with Rev. Clark as we take this next (long-awaited) step in our transition.
