Hillsdale OPC
Today, January 13, 2008, Michael & James made their Public Profession of Faith and became the first members of Hillsdale OPC via Public Profession of Faith. Chuck and I also became members by letter of transfer from the CRC church we attended in Jackson, MI. Three other families joined church tonite via letter of transfer. We also had a baptism, so it was a busy nite at our church.
We have lived in Michigan since 1983 and transferred our membership from the OPC in Glenside, PA to the Jackson Christian Reformed Church in Jackson, MI. In 1996, we started attending Demmings Lake Reformed Baptist Church in Clayton, MI. That church moved to Adrian, MI and became the Reformed Baptist Church of Lenawee. We still attend there on Sunday mornings because our new church doesn't have a.m. services yet.
This was such a special day for us because we have been waiting all of these years for an OPC work to start in our area. Now we just have to find a pastor!

Congratulations to all of you!!! I'm so happy for you guys.
I got up early this morning because the forecast said we were supposed to get up to 6 inches of snow so of course that meant that I would have to go out and check the roads. So far I've looked out the window at the driveway and there is absolutely NO snow on the driveway, just on the lawn! So I'm thinking that I'll go back to bed.............
I just wanted to check to see if you FINALLY updated - thanks!!

Chuck and I are leaving today for North Carolina (Monday, the 21st). Nick was supposed to get in just after midnight tonite, but his flight was delayed and he was still in Kuwait as of Sunday night our time. He should be in North Carolina Tuesday around noon.
