Saturday Afternoon Event and Sunday Interview Cancelled

Dear Genesee Lutheran Parish Family,
 
Pastor Joel Skindlov has withdrawn his name from our call process, as he is involved with another church call, and they are going to vote to confirm him this week.
He has offered to pray for our congregation in our process. I said that we appreciated his openness and thanked him for his prayers.
The Sunday interview is cancelled, as well as the Saturday afternoon get-together at the Valley we had planned. The Potluck will also be cancelled, a few of us will bring some refreshments for Fellowship plus there is the ice cream that Mark and Carly Stutzman brought.
If you know of someone who would want to know this information, but is not listed on this email, or who does not have email, please let us know so we might contact them, or just go ahead and contact them yourself. Thank you for spreading this word.
.
Stay tuned for information about the Friday night Theology on Tap, as that, hopefully, will still take place.
As an aside, Verna Studer and I would love to discuss what we learned at Synod Assembly at Theology on Tap, so consider joining us and bring questions!
 
God Bless You!!
