Dear Members and Friends of TCP,
The snow is melting! I'm ready for warmer weather and outdoor activities. I pray for a safe season for us all this summer. We did not get nearly enough snowfall in March to keep the danger of fires away in the summer. Please be careful and mindful of those dangers this summer.
As I prepare for my sabbatical in May, I will be keeping you all informed of our progress as we move along our trip through these weekly emails. Here is my schedule for the next couple of months.
April 6th - Scott Schell preaching. I will be in New Orleans watching Ben perform his senior capstone project
May 10th - Dwight Gorbold preaching. The Heils will be in New Orleans cheering Ben on, as he graduates from Loyola with his music degree.
May 25th - Dwight Gorbold preaching. The sabbatical tour begins from New Orleans!
June 1st - Scott Schell preachng.
June 8th - Scott Schell preaching.
June 15th - Dwight Gorbold preaching.
June 22nd - Scott Schell preaching. Sabbatical Tour ends around this time.
June 29th - I will probably preach on this Sunday.
July 6th - I will probably be preaching on this Sunday.

We will continue to stream the services and send out the worship materials and links while I am gone. Thank you to Mandy Cluck for seeing that all of the streaming will take place. Thank you to Dwight and Scott for agreeing to fill in while I am gone. (they will receive an increased stipend from the session when they preach) Dwight Gorbold has agreed to take on any pastoral care needs or emergencies while I am away during this time. We will keep you informed of his contact information. (Remember, he does have a day job.) I am grateful to Dwight and Scott, to the session, and to all of you for allowing this once in a lifetime adventure for a dad and his young adult kid.
Mandy and I have music planned for this Sunday. Hope to see you at church! If not, here are your links below.
Love,
David
