Happy New Year, everyone!! This should be an interesting year...full of changes. The word "change" seems to be the buzz-word for presidential candidates these days so I thought I would get in the spirit of things.

I guess our biggest change as a church family is the arrival of our new teaching pastor, Thomas, whose 1st Sunday is January 20th. We don't know how or if his coming will effect anything in Worship Arts, but Scott, Jeni and I will certainly welcome his input and ideas in our programming meetings.

IMPORTANT NEWS & PRAYER REQUESTS

I am attempting to put together an all-men's choir for Easter Sunday. If you know of some men in our church who sing and would like to have a part in this special event, please have them email me at the church. I'd like to have 20-30 men and I think we can do it! They will need to have some experience in "part" singing.

Henrique D. is leaving for Iraq in just a week or so. Please pray for his safety and for Erica as she waits for him and prepares for a new baby in their home.

Kenny Flanagan, son of Yours Truly, has finally asked his beautiful Anna to be his wife. He proposed on Christmas Eve morning and presented her with a beautiful ring. They are both very excited and are planning to be married on June 27th or 28th.
