Retired Clergy Luncheon at St. Antony's

Today we hosted a lunch for the retired clergy of our area. Ruth, Pat, and Ann provided a delicious meal and spread a lovely table, and Vivian created beautiful table decorations. It was a festive occasion!

About 15 clergy and spouses came for the luncheon along with Bishop Greg. By taking the time to come to Silverdale, our bishop showed that he really cares about the clergy of our diocese, including the retired clergy and spouses. He asked them to share a little about their lives and their ministries, and it was fun to listen to the rich diversity of clergy careers in the room. Some of the relationships go back decades.

I'm very grateful to those who worked hard to make this luncheon such a lovely occasion.
