Farewell Grant & Wendy!
Archbishop Duncan will be present for this Service of Baptism and Confirmation. We will also say farewell to Grant and Wendy LeMarquand as they move to Ethiopia this summer to begin ministry there. Grant was recently consecrated as Assistant Bishop of the Diocese of Egypt with North Africa and the Horn of Africa and Area Bishop for the Horn of Africa (whew!) The service will be followed by a cake reception in the Parish Hall to celebrate those who have taken a new step in their faith walk, and to celebrate Grant and Wendy’s next steps in ministry! Do plan on joining us!
