Gibbons Update

Many folk have been asking about how Richard Gibbons is getting on in Greenville. I hadn't heard from him since his departure in August, until last week when he phoned. He was asking warmly after everyone. It sounds like it has been quite a challenge to come to grips with the sheer scale of the church, with 600 attending the contemporary service and another 2000 going to the other services. They have bought a house which they move into in mid August.Ruth and Michael are both settling in well too, although for all of them they still feel the distance in terms of missing family and friends. Hopefully, Richard will find some time when he gets to grips with his 60 plus committees to send us an email with all the news.
