Ministers regularly take “study leave” as part of their work in order to deepen ministerial skills and focus on areas of development. Study leave cna include time for reading, research, renewal, and rest. Rev. Beth will be taking her first extended study leave time from May 6-20. She will not be available for meetings or regular church business during this time and will be focused on reading, planning for next church year, and attending a worship retreat. For pastoral needs, folks can reach out to Rev. Sally and for administrative needs, reach out to Cate Calac.
