The Report of the Pastor - 2005

Fellow workers for God:
          


          Please read this report not as a summary of the actions of your pastor in 2005; but, rather, as a report that reflects the congregational acts that have happened throughout last year, 2005.  In humility, I thank you for the opportunity to be God's and your representative to the families involved. Each of us shares in the ministry of Prince of Peace and are in service to THE Prince of Peace.
