We Need a New Administrative Assistant
Our wonderful Administrative Assistant Nancy Townend, will be retiring this spring. We urgently need to find her replacement.
The first step is to form a Search Team. If you would like to help with this please contact:
Bronwen Harman at: bharman@xplornet.ca
or
Louise Link at: louiselink41@gmail.com
Being on the search team will be a short-term responsibility. This Team will advertise, search for, interview, and recommend a candidate. We need to move quickly so that the new person can be in place on May 1, 2024. There will be a one-month overlap with Nancy until her retirement on May 31.
Also, if you know of anyone who might be interested in this position please let us know.

Our Origins
In 1840, the first congregation of St. Andrew’s United Church of Pakenham gathered together in worship. The people in that first congregation, made up of predominantly pioneering families from Ireland and Scotland, had sailed across the Atlantic, then up the St. Lawrence by steamer to Brockville, then by foot to Perth and finally through rough forest trails to their parcels of land in Pakenham. For the 175 years since that first gathering, subsequent generations have continued the tradition of worship with determination, faith, love and a strong sense of community. To this day outreach remains the heart and soul of our faith family.
