Notes about this email
This email only goes to a list of email addresses of mostly Grace and Trinity members, from the latest printed directory, and a few others. It definitely isn’t a complete list, certainly doesn’t go to all of the members of the two congregations, and isn’t as wide-reaching as Pastor Boyle’s weekly email list. Let me know if you don’t want to be on this list and receive these emails.

Pr. Filipek asked to meet via phone with the presidents and head elders of Grace and Trinity this week.

He is still planning to make his decision about the call not later than July 17th.
