Good-Bye and Hello Next Sunday we say “good-bye” to Rev. Roger Hanson as our supply minister of music. We are grateful for his leadership in worship during this time of transition. Though he has been with us for just a short time he has been a great asset to our church. Be sure to thank him this Wednesday evening and next Sunday as we say good-bye. Then the following Sunday, March 8, we will say “hello” to the Rev. and Mrs. Matthew Pittman and their son, Liam. Matthew will be in the office Monday, March 2, and will lead choir rehearsal on Wednesday, March 4. As a gesture of our Hartwell hospitality, let’s stock the pantry of their new home with an old fashioned “pounding.” Bring nonperishable items or a gift card to get them off to a good start. Drop your items in the “Welcome Matthew” basket at the welcome center or church office. Also we are in need of volunteers to help unload the moving truck Saturday, February 28 at 9:00AM, 370 Memorial Dr. (Matt Law’s previous residence). Thank you.
