Thank you, Joel Marshall!

A few weeks ago, Rev. Joel Marshall announced his last Sunday serving as the interim music minister will be April 27. The elders thank Joel and his wife Becky for their dedicated service and leadership for the past year.

As our interim, Joel has been an integral part of the music ministry with numerous hours of rehearsing, preparing, directing our choir and orchestra, and leading the congregation in worship. His hard work and dedication to produce the Christmas at Christ program was a highlight of his ministry here and we are grateful for his leadership.

We express our sincere thanks and appreciation to Joel and Becky for their faithful service to the Lord, the relationships they have built while serving here, and for their friendship. We are also grateful for the many miles they traveled each week to be with us. We appreciate them both and wish them well in their future endeavors.

If you would like to provide a card of appreciation to Joel and Becky, please send it to:
