A note from our Executive Presbyter / Stated Clerk (elect):
As May gives way to June, I am wrapping up six years of ministry with the saints of the New Wilmington church and looking forward to starting my work with and for you as EP/SC. My first day on the job will be this Monday, June 2. Although I have been elected as EP, I will not officially begin my duties at Stated Clerk until the June 24 presbytery meeting, when I will be installed. Until then, and through that meeting, Rev. Jerry Mahaffey will remain our capable Stated Clerk.
Here are some ways you can connect with me beginning June 2: For email, use ralph@shenango.org. For phone, you can reach me at the presbytery office (724-528-1610) during office hours or on my cell other times at 724-456-2569. I do not have a home phone. I will be developing and sharing with you some standard office hours, but the best way to connect with me in person will be to reach out for an appointment. Indeed, I look forward to connecting with a great many Shenango folks this summer. And for better or worse, this is the age of social media. Connect with me on Twitter at @rwhawkins or on Facebook at www.facebook.com/ralph.w.hawkins. I also keep a running collection of shorter writings at http://nextdoorpercy.blogspot.com
I’ll be in touch again in the first weeks of June.
Ralph W. Hawkins
