a new chapter begins

Our call to the Hammondsport and Pulteney Presbyterian Churches officially began on Wednesday, 1 April. (Did it being April Fools' Day have any significance? One can only wonder.)

The churches are yoked congregations in the Presbytery of Geneva, in the Finger Lakes area of New York. The photo of the Pulteney church appears first, since it has the earlier service. Then comes the Hammondsport church.

Banu and I are both tired and thankful. We've had quite a busy past few days, hurriedly packing and doing plenty of last minute things. Our Sheltie, Duncan, seems to still be disoriented by it all. But we're grateful to God as this new chapter in all of our lives begins!
