Thank You Pastors!

Our Pioneer pastors work diligently on our behalf, and we would like to take this opportunity to thank them for their efforts. October is Pastor Appreciation Month and we have provided a card for you to write a personal note to one or more of our pastors (Dwight Nelson, Jose’ Bourget, John Glass, Ben Martin, Lindsey Pratt, Taurus Montgomery, Rodlie Ortiz), or ministers (Kenneth Logan, Richard Parke). Return your completed cards today to the welcome stations located in the Narthex, the Welcome Center downstairs, or at the desk between the Youth Chapel and the Sanctuary. Thank you!
