DR. ELNES WILL BE ON BEREAVEMENT LEAVE FROM 1/17 TO 1/30

Our condolences go out to Dr. Elnes, who recently lost a good friend and is in the process of losing another.  Regarding the latter, the Rev. Bruce Van Blair is not only a close friend, but has served as Eric’s pastoral mentor for 42 years. “Bruce has been every bit as much of a father to me as my own father was, whom I loved dearly,” he said recently.  As a tribute to Bruce, Eric will be reading a favorite sermon of Bruce's this Sunday in worship. 

While Eric is away, please contact Avena Ward or Bunny Oliver if you need to speak with a minister.
