Dear Savannah Presbytery,
We will be hosting our Fall Stated Meeting at 10 am at Metter Presbyterian Church on Thursday, October 8, and are expecting a big day. Visitors are always welcome to attend and see our voting members in action.
This would be a good one for visitors, as it will include elements of celebration, education, and unity. Three new pastors are being welcomed into membership and service for St. Simons, First Statesboro, and First Savannah. At least six Ruling Elders are being recognized for being approved as “Commissioned Pastors” and “Trained Ruling Elders” to help overcome the scarcity of available Ministers of Word and Sacrament. The Rev. Dr. Cathy Belles will be recognized upon her retirement.
Following the meeting, we’ll head down the street for a hearty lunch buffet at Bevrick’s and a program by the Rev. Dana Waters, a minister member of the presbytery who works for the Presbyterian Foundation as the Ministry Relations Officer for the Southeast Region. He visits congregations in FL, GA, MS, AL, and Puerto Rico, so he has ideas for building communities of generosity in our churches.

Thank you for making Savannah Presbytery the supportive and connected community of churches and Christ followers that it is.
God bless you,
