Let

Let's Meet!

 
One of the things I love to do when I start as a new church is to meet with folks.  I try to connect with all the active church people outside of Sunday morning during the first year. I am happy to come to your home, connect with you at church, or find another spot for a chat.  One of my favorite visits was with a man who worked his entire career as a hydrogeologist. We met for a hike through Reed Canyon and he talked about his life and explained the water and geology to me as we wended our way through campus. I found one of my favorite lunch spots when a family invited me to meet them at a nearby restaurant for our visit. And I got to hear a player piano for the first time at a visit to one couple's home. 
To help us get started with this I have created an online visit scheduler. Please take a moment to schedule a visit at this link calendly.com/pastoreilidh/visits
If you have any troubles just email me at pastoreilidh@gmail.com.
I will be reaching out to active church people who don't schedule in the spring, so don't worry about those who aren't online, I won't miss them!
Looking forward to the chance to meet with you all
-Pastor Eilidh
