The party was held on April 15, 2012 in the Parish Hall. It was a wonderful time. Mother Barbara really seemed to enjoy it. Great food (catered by a Deaf business), wine, cake, nice card, speeches by Ginny Lindsay and Angela Somers and Rev. Ron Freidrich. Ginny read a letter from the Rev. Jay Croft. Nice to see Gordon and Mary Ann Pickering and Al Nsumbo and others. Nice to see Rev. Sari Ateek from St. John's make an appearance during a busy Sunday for him too.
