'How to Balance Hospitality and Church Security'
Looking for 10 volunteers for Friday, June 1 and Saturday, June 2 to assist registrants with check-in process.
We currently have 26 congregations in the call process. All of this work is handled by Pr. Jeff Wick, Assistant to the Bishop, and Gabrielle Hudecek. We continue to see an increase in the numbers in the call process because of rostered minister retirements.
The books you donate will be distributed at community book fairs, camps and other events around the city as part of the Gathering's Service Learning experience. By putting books in the hands of Houston's economically disadvantaged students, you can help change lives.
If you wish to receive all of Gary's monthly information, please contact Gary Pecuch at gpecuch@southernohiosynod.org to be added to his distribution list.
