Thanks from Rev David Macdonald: I would just like to express my sincere thanks, on behalf of my wife and I, to the congregation for your very generous gift and heartfelt support as I begin ministry in Back. I will always regard myself as being blessed and privileged to grow up in the congregation and have always been aware of the prayerful support of all associated. I assure you of our continued prayerful remembrance of you all as a congregation as we begin this new chapter. Thank you once again for your kindness. Every blessing, David Macdonald.
