One week ago, today, our dear friend of eighteen years, Paula B. Gile, became our dear friend Reverend Paula B. Gile.
We were both privileged and honored to attend her ordination at the Malletts Bay Congregational Church - United Church of Christ. It was a beautiful service, creatively and spiritually crafted by the Reverend, filled with love, friendship, joyful music and spiritual reverence. It was a divine culmination of a destiny that we wholeheartedly believe was pre-written for Paula. A destiny that has beckoned her for years. She is, and will always be, a constant source of inspiration to all who know her. We are so proud of her and love her dearly.
As stated in the Ordination Service Acclamation:
"We will, the family and friends of Paula B. Gile, support her in the ministry of Christ"
After the service was completed we enjoyed celebrating with her at a Church sponsored reception and when the formalities concluded, we continued the celebration at Paula and Bill's - where the Asti Spumante was flowing! ;-)
Nothing like great friends to share the most wonderful moments in life...
Jane and me..... loving on the REV!! :-)
Paula....love filled wishes to you as you begin a new chapter in your life....Associate Pastor at the Lanconia Congregational Church.
