Second Pastor Dr. James Rennell Retires
Providence sadly accepted the retirement of our pastor/co-pastor of five and a half years. His wisdom, leadership and inspiration in the pastoral role will be greatly missed, but we are blessed that he will remain active in our church as a member. We all wish him the very best in this new phase of his life. For the near future, we will be led in worship by co-pastor Melissa Roysdon.
