David Nelson and Lois Stowell reported on the February 6 Presbytery Meeting at St. Philip. Mary Sterner was recognized during the worship service for completing the requirements to become a Certified Associate Christian Educator, and the St. Johners present were invited to stand with her during that part of the service. Lois shared that the worship service was a powerful experience and enjoyed the keynote speaker Rev. Eric Hoey, director of Evangelism and Church Growth for the PC(USA). The title of his sermon was "JUMP-STARTING THE CHURCH."
