Dear {{first_name}}

A quick update as we close in on May 31.

This Sunday, Wisconsin Presbytery will install me as the church planter of Holy Cross Presbyterian Church. Some of you have been on this list since its beginning and others were added in the last few weeks as word has spread. Either way, I'm glad you're here.

The work has gained real momentum since the April letter. We are in the closing stretch of a long preparation, and my official start date is almost here.

Here is the plan for May 31:

Morning worship at Clear Water Presbyterian begins at 10 AM, and I will be preaching. After the service, we will have an informational meeting and fellowship time for Holy Cross, followed by lunch hosted by Clear Water for anyone who wants to stay.

The installation service begins at 1:30 PM. Afterward, anyone who would like to keep the day going is welcome at our home for drinks, sandwiches to go, and fellowship. I look forward to spending time with any of you who can come and answer whatever questions I can. These letters are always meant to be a two way conversation. Hit reply any time. We are thankful for the people God is gathering around this work.

Always in Christ, Matt

P.S. We'll be in Hudson sooner than you think. More on that soon.
