Note from the Rev. Wendy MacWilliams, Interim Moderator:

    On behalf of the session, I am pleased to inform you that the Rev. Jon Van Den Berg will preach for the call here at Saint Andrew’s Presbyterian Church on Sunday, June 17 at 11 a.m.  A congregational meeting will take place immediately following service that same day, in the church hall, to ascertain whether the congregation is prepared to proceed with the call and if it wishes to recommend to the Presbytery of NB that a call be extended.

    Arrangements are being made for Rev. Van Den Berg to meet with the session and various committees of Saint Andrew’s on Saturday, June 16.  In addition, a church potluck will be held that Saturday night to give the congregation, Rev. Van Den Berg, and his wife opportunity to meet one another.

    Additional information is detailed in the letter which has been distributed to members and adherents.
