FROM THE DESK OF THE PASTOR

 On July 1st, 2023, I kick off another year as your Pastor under Bishop’s appointment. It has been such a blessing, honor and privilege to lead two wonderful congregations: Dorchester and Friend UMC. I truly
love both communities and see them as home.
As I pause and reflect on what we have done together during these past 3 years-- What a blessing! What a joy!! and What a privilege I have in Jesus Christ!!! As
I start my fourth year of ministry with both wonderful congregations, I’m so excited, overjoyed, blessed, and grateful. I pray that this 4th year we will touch more people lives and spread the loving spirit of the congregations out into the communities even more than they currently do.
As I humbly walk with you all, I strongly ask the Spirit of God to fill our hearts with His love, dream, purpose and mission and also continue to use our church to lead
people to the kingdom of God, to share the hope of Christ and make a huge difference in our communities.
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. - Romans 15:13 NIV
Blessings, Rev. April
