Beliefs
I believe God, through Christ, has directed me to the
Church of Christ in Weed.
I believe we can grow together spiritually.
It is in light of these beliefs that I submit to you a
willingness to become
your pastor, preaching only the Teachings of Christ,
especially as written in the Christian Bible.
Together we can grow! (The parsonage could be rented out,
since I live in Hammond Ranch, Weed, Ca, with my husband,
Jim Mullen, who would be attending and supporting the
Church of Christ, should you decide this is desirable to
your members.)
In the name of Christ,
