NOTES FROM THE CHOIR LOFT . . .

On the first Sunday of this past October, Charlotte and I began our twenty-first year of ministry at First Presbyterian Church, and during those twenty plus years, this church has come to mean so much to both of us.  I want to take this opportunity before 2008 becomes a reality in less than a week to thank all of you for your support, your suggestions, and especially to the members of the Chancel Choir, your loyalty. 
 
As our church heads into a new year, I feel a sense of excitement for this church and its future.  Charlotte and I  have had the privilege of serving under three full-time ministers and an interim and in each case, we have had nothing but the greatest of support from the pulpit; that means a lot, for I know of churches where that is not the case. 
 
We will resume our Wednesday night rehearsals on the ninth of January, and we are looking ahead with great anticipation to a year of growth in our church and hopefully that will include some new choir members as well.  We are also excited about the prospects of some renovations to our organ and the distinct possibility of getting new choir robes.
 
So to close, thank you for all of your support during our journey together, and I am looking forward to a new beginning, and personally, I cannot wait  to get started. Hymn #377 so eloquently says  "We have come to the lakeshore", and my hope is that we as a church will 'seek other seas' under the inspired leadership of  Rev. Robert Montgomery, the session and the members of our congregation.  May God bless us in our endeavors.
