Enjoy this lovey June weekend which promises some sunshine and some rain to make the people and the plants happy.

As to my retirement,  I'd like you to know how important St. David's has been to me over the years. St. David's has been a tremendous part of my ministry journey, being both the congregation I discerned to ministry with as well as the last congregation I am serving with before retirement. It has been a great honour and gift to journey with you. Looking ahead, my last day is June 30. The Ministry and Personnel committee is busy lining up my replacement and you will be hearing more about that soon.

Blessings,

Rev. Debbie

COVID-19 has made a difference in our lives, for sure, but our St. David's community remains such an important part of our week. We last met as a congregation on March 15, 2020. Plans for returning continue to be a work in progress. Stay tuned!!
