Stanwich Celebration a Big Success
On September 18 Stanwich enjoyed
an “Extravaganza” all-church picnic and
ministry celebration at the new church site. The event was well attended, providing an opportunity to enjoy wonderful fellowship and displays featuring many of the congregation’s ministries. Add to that the launch of
our new web site, the introduction of
Don Osgood’s newly updated book
on Stanwich history, a picnic feast,
the singing of hymns led by the
Evensong band, and the joy of standing
in what will soon be our beautiful new church home, and we had all the ingredients for what Rev. Neely Towe refers to as a truly “high time.” Thanks
to the multitude of volunteers who made
the event possible.

Mark Scarlata Heads Clergy Group
The Greenwich Fellowship of Clergy
has just selected Rev. Mark Scarlata,
our Associate Pastor, as President
of the organization. The Fellowship is an ecumenical group of priests, pastors and rabbis from different houses of worship in town. It meets once a month for a luncheon, which often includes speakers from various local political or service groups. The group also hosts various town-wide worship events throughout the year on holidays such
as Thanksgiving and Martin Luther King Day. Mark will be responsible for the organization of the Fellowship and will
be called on to represent the clergy at various town events. This is a great
honor and outstanding recognition for both Mark and Stanwich.
