“From a small town in Northern New York and a dream of becoming a Mortician to being a Construction Manager in the Mid Atlantic Region with numerous twists and turns. At age 80 I can reflect on the many changes that have been both positive and negative in my life and how God has always been in control even though I knew I was in charge.
Things I have done over the years: Worked on a farm in the summers. Worked as an Apprentice Mortician Served in the USAF. Worked for The Largest Undertaker in the World. Volunteer Fireman/EMS. Director of Construction Safety Program – Rossmorr Leisure World. Assistant Estimator at Rossmorr. Continued Estimating and advanced into Construction Management. Retired but still provide Construction Consulting Service as requested.
I now have been blessed to be the Chairman of the Building & Grounds Committee here at St Andrew Presbyterian Church”.
God is Great, Thank you!

Presbyterian Women Bible Study
2024-09-10 19:00 - 20:15, 2024-09-10 10:00 - 11:15
This year’s Bible Study is, “Come to the Waters.” Water plays a leading role in the stories of creation, the delivery of God’s people (through the parting of the Red Sea and the crossing of the Jordan River), judgement of a people weak in faith, and the adoption of the people of God through baptism. This Bible Study explores some of the Bible’s 800 references to water. We invite all Presbyterian women to meet with us and explore how sometimes there is too much water and sometimes there is too little water. We will consider the waters of chaos in Genesis and the River of Life in the last chapter of Revelation where chaos is no more.
Please join us Tuesday, September 10, as we begin this fascinating new Bible Study. Pastor Mark will lead both the morning and the evening Bible Studies. The daytime group meets from 10:00- 11:15 a.m. and the evening group meets 7:00-8:15 p.m. with childcare provided as needed. Please let Terri Long know if you require childcare. (We meet at St. Andrew the second Tuesday of every month, September through May.)
Joining one of our groups will help you grow deeper in your faith through the spiritual discipline of scripture with others
