Retirement Celebration for Jennifer Keen – Wednesday, November 7
After more than 22 years of loyal service and self-less dedication, Jennifer Keen will be retiring as parish secretary. While retirement marks the end of one season, so it begins a new one. As a parish family, let us come together to celebrate this change of seasons.
A special celebration of Holy Eucharist will be held on Wednesday, November 7, 2007, at 5:30 PM in honor and thanksgiving for Jennifer’s ministry at the Church of the Good Shepherd. The collection taken that evening will be presented to Jennifer as one token of our appreciation. Following the service, a dinner honoring Jennifer will be served in Craig Hall.
In addition, anyone who wishes to make a contribution toward Jennifer’s purse before the 7th may do so by sending a check to the church, payable to “The Church of the Good Shepherd”, with “Jennifer’s gift” indicated on your check.
Please mark your calendars today for this special evening of thanksgiving for the dedicated ministry of Jennifer Keen and congratulate her as she embarks on new adventures. I look forward to seeing you on Wednesday, November 7th at 5:30 PM. For more information, contact Stan Bullock, Sr. Warden at 608-6500 or srwarden@goodshepherd23.org.
