Sunday, August 20 – Council Office Bearers Installation during our combined service.
On Monday, July 17, we shared the sudden news that the Campbell family will be following a calling to return to their home in Northern Ireland and finish their service here at Church of the Servant over the coming weeks. If you missed the email with this announcement, you may find it here. Update: Sunday, August 20, will be Pastor Karen’s final Sunday with us at Church of the Servant. We will hold a combined service in the large worship space with Rev. Andrew Mead preaching. We will then gather following worship to express our gratitude and goodbyes to Pastor Karen. More details on this Sunday are forthcoming.
