Since the pandemic, it has been more difficult to connect with our friends and family. To help connect with our church family, you can do that now.

Greetings to Pastor Bart Coleman. It’s been a long time (1984) since we worked together in Billings MT. Blessings to you in your ministry, Bart. Lots of good memories of experiences we shared together.

What a celebration we had and how gratifying to see the congregations gather to worship and feast together! We continue to figure out together what shared ministry looks like and events like Sunday’s barbecue give us a hint about one of the key ingredients.
In a sermon a while back, the preacher said something like “you work well together and seem to like each other.” I think I’m sticking to my story there:)
Thank you for your dedication, hard work and enthusiasm—and for adapting when the rains came.
It will be illuminating (and I bet inspiring) to hear stories about the next two Sundays when you share Service of the Word and rotate locations. Blessings on your planning and preparation.
Pastor Bart
