A Celebration of Memories
On September 29th we celebrated with Reverend Ray Bagnuolo his successful three-year tenure as Palisades Presbyterian Church’s interim pastor. Ray joined PPC in October 2005 – just yesterday, it seems. As the years flew by we basked in the peace and calm which he brought to the details of the daily spiritual life we shared. Ray’s sermons were applauded by all who heard them. His embracing words of “you were all welcome, long before you arrived” will reverberate through our sanctuary for all time.
We prepare for the upcoming arrival of a new minister.
