Dear Friends,
What an exciting time in the life of CUCC! We join you in welcoming the call of Lacey Brown as your new pastor. When we arrived last August, we had just met each other. In addition to bridging this time between your settled pastors, we would be building bridges across our individual pastoral styles and experiences. We have been grateful for this opportunity to grown in ministry together with you. And we acknowledge that with the excitement we feel for you, there is also sadness for us in saying our goodbyes. On April 19th, we will end our time as your bridge pastors. This is also the date that Pastor Lacey and the Central Congregational UCC will say farewell to one another. She will be in the office May 5th and lead worship May 10th. Our deacons will take responsibility for worship on the two Sundays in between. We have the season of Lent and Holy Week to be intentional about this important transition in the life of CUCC. Among the variety of Lenten offerings for Strengthening Our Core, may we create spaces and places to express gratitude, to ask forgiveness, and to offer blessings to each other.
With love for you all,
Carol & Tony
