Pieces of cake were enjoyed by all the presbyters as the Personnel Committee acknowledged and celebrated the ministry of Lucy Rupe, Executive Presbyter of Winnebago Presbytery for the past 10 years.
A gift of a handmade necklace was presented to Lucy by Anne Dropp, chair of the Personnel Committee. In her comments, Lucy highlighted many events during the past 10 years, but particularly emphasized the Presbytery’s commitment to reach out to others both locally and globally.

During the recent Presbytery-wide, “Spring Thing”, a worship service was designed by the youth participants . Susan Phillips, pastor of First Presbyterian Church Shawano, incorporated many of these components for worship at the Presbytery meeting. Pictured here are Judy Bond, Director of Music at Frame Memorial, Stevens Point; Susan Phillips; and Susan Zencka, pastor of Frame Memorial. They are leading the presbyters in an African song that highlights our journey of faith.
