The day was filled laughter, lots of good food and a few tears. We are grateful for her 11 ½ years of devoted service to Gloria Dei. She will be missed. We are now in the transition phase. The next couple months will be an adjustment for all of us. We must remember to be kind to one another and support each other through this change. Rev. Paul Harris will continue to lead us in worship on Sundays as well as during the holidays. We are truly blessed to have him with us. The Search Committee of Gloria Dei has been working very hard interviewing candidates and sorting through resumes. Very soon we will be announcing the name of our next rector! Please keep this committee in your prayers. October is now coming to an end and Lucia practice has already begun. Thanksgiving will be here before you know it then it will be Christmas. Where did the time go? As we head into our busy season at Gloria Dei, we will be in need of lots of volunteers to help during Lucia. If you have some time to spare over Lucia weekend, Dec. 8th, 9th and 10th, we can certainly find a place to put you to work. Remember many hands make light work.
