CLERK'S CORNER
A MESSAGE FROM THE CLERK OF SESSION
Boy, Look How We've 'Grown'
As May's Session meeting concluded. I felt sadness for the Elders and Deacons who have completed their commitment. Thankful for the faith, energy and time they have given for the past three or six years. This group of leaders, along with others before them and the group of leaders who are continuing with another term, have all been Mission del Sol's rock in a long season of changes. Interim Pastors, New Called Pastor and of course... Covid-19. Click here to continue reading.
