This Week at Old South Haven Church - church bell and Charlotte


A Personal Note:
    I am back in Brookhaven after having a wonderful week at Chautauqua Institution, I will be sharing much of that in the next issue of our NEWSletter,
I am thankful to Alan Stevens and Linda Majowka who filled the pulpit for the two Sundays I was gone. I am so thankful to Darcy Stevens  who initiated the Bell Ringing act of solidarity with those in Charlottesville who protested against demonstrations of hate, bigotry, and racism. I am proud and grateful that our Session approved and supported this activity. May our Church Bell and our Congregation always witness to equality of all. Thanks to the several bell ringers who are participating during the month of September. (Please note below the great picture of Darcy's dexterity in this week's Long Island Advance.)
    
The schedule that follows is a witness to all the activity that will take place here during this month of September.
