Update on our Pastor
Rev. Mary McClure retired as our pastor effective August, 15, 2009. Her twelve year tenure at the First Presbyterian Church of Gaylord was a good one. The congregation wishes Pastor Mary well as she moves into her retirement and the next phase of her life. She will be missed but certainly not forgotten.
We are very pleased to welcome as our interim pastor the Rev. Dr. John Helgeson. John began his tenure with us as of December 1, 2009. He received his D.Min from Union Virginia in Richmond, Virginia and a Masters in Theology from Princeton Seminary. He was ordained in 1975.
We warmly welcome John and his wife Nancy to our church and look forward to a rewarding experience with them as John leads us during our time of transition to a new pastor.
