Wow! What a wonderful Sunday it is today!
Charles was surprised with a lovely and delicious cake in honor of Pastor's Appreciation Sunday at the FUMC! (One side was chocolate; the other side was vanilla.) Folks enjoyed sampling the cake between services and then after the 10:00 a.m. service. What was left will be enjoyed as dessert at the Alpha potluck dinner tonight! Yum; yum; yum!
At both services, Charles wore the gorgeous stole that Arlene Christensen crocheted for him. It is blue (Charles' favorite color) with antique white stripes on it.
At the 10:00 a.m. service, Donna Bahr, chair of the Staff/Pastor Parish Relations Committee (S/PPRC) presented Charles with a breath-taking cross framed in a special shadow box. It will be a lasting reminder of his time here at the First United Methodist Church in Sidney, Nebraska.
After church, we enjoyed going out to lunch with some of the church members. All in all, it was a lovely morning at church!
For special folks who take the time to remember their pastor in such a very special way, we give thanks to God! Praise be to God!!!
