Preparing for Pr. Filipek and Family
The Filipeks arrived late Tuesday evening, and Wednesday afternoon the U-Haul trucks were unloaded and moved into the house. Thanks to all that have helped with preparing the parsonage and helping the family to move in on Wednesday. Also, thanks to all who provided food and gift cards to help ease the transition into a new home.
