Summer Open House

Sunday was the perfect day for an open house at the manse.  The weather was relatively cool with a cloud-cover, which made the back deck perfect for visiting.  I even turned on my gas fire pit for ambiance and even a little warmth.  Rain threatened, but the few drops never drove anyone inside.
We had over 40 PCMK members of all ages drop by for food and conversation.  As always, Elisabeth did a lovely job preparing nice refreshments with the help of Alexa La Pierre.  (Alexa had gone with us on the mission trip and we "sponsored" her and in return she was willing to help host the event.)  We couldn't have done it without her.
A highlight of the event was the opportunity to get to meet Kathy Anderson, our new Christian Education Director.  Kathy had her first day in the church office last week and is getting her feet on the ground.  If you haven't met her yet, come to church this Sunday.  She'll be with us every Sunday from now on!  Welcome Kathy!
I've attached a few pictures of the event.  It's hard to believe summer is fast fading away.  So it was nice to linger over a summer afternoon with our church family.
See you in church.
Pastor Dale

Welcoming Kathy to PCMK!
