Pastoral letter
The Manse
Dear Friends
My summer will be different this year as I will be away for six weeks from Greenbank and will have the new experience of spending some of my time away with some of our young people from Greenbank and Netherlee at Mooresville Presbyterian Church in New Jersey before we travel on to the Broad Street Ministry in Philadelphia. I’ve never had an opportunity like this before. I’m looking forward to what I hope will be an enjoyable and rewarding time and finding out more about what the church is like in America.
A commissioning service for The Philadelphia Mission Team will be held at Netherlee Parish Church on Sunday 27th June at 6.30pm and everyone is invited to come along and give us all a prayerful and good send off!
Over the summer weeks, the church will also be taking some ‘time off’ – not a holiday – but a break from the meetings and groups that would normally be held here on a regular basis. It is a chance for folk to hopefully enjoy warm evenings in the garden or maybe take a break away somewhere different or a time to do something that there isn’t always time for.
Like me, I hope you will be able to do something new this summer and that you will be suitably refreshed and renewed by the experience. Whatever you do, please remember that God never takes a holiday. In all the things that you might experience may God keep you ever aware of His loving presence with you this summer and always.
Yours,
Jeanne
