An Anniversary Celebration
 What a joy it is for me: I get to celebrate my one-year anniversary of being your pastor! And, with gratitude, I get to start a new year with you. I continue to feel blessed that I get to serve with you in this congregation. I give thanks for the opportunity to be appointed in a place that feels like such a good match for this time, in my life and the life our our church. I am inspired by your faithfulness in ministry, and privileged to be your pastor. In some ways, it feels like it's been so much longer than a year. During our time together, I've had the rich blessing of sharing in important moments, from our church's 125th anniversary and Shared Bread's 20th anniversary to moments in life lives of many of you. Thank you for trusting me, and for being willing to try new things. I am excited about what will come in the next year. with gratitude, Pastor Molly p.s. I will be on vacation as you read this, until July 9. On Sunday, a seminary student who I've been blessed to know and be in ministry with for many years, will bring the sermon. I trust you'll join in helping welcome Evan Neel to FUMCRB then!

 Lay Looker, by Bob Peterson
Read Bob Peterson's column here and on our website!
" I will make one last comment or two about the sanctuary's beautiful castle which was built by our own people. When choir director Linda Waterman began conducting the anthem at the 11:00 AM service last week she said she felt like the choir should have sung songs from Camelot. Also, I believe..."
