To all members and friends of Alpine Lutheran Church,
After a great amount of praying and meditation, I have come to the decision of resigning my position as music director at Alpine Lutheran Church. Serving Alpine has been a heart warming and rewarding experience for me.
There are many wonderful and talented people at Alpine. You have become dear friends. All of you have certainly “made my job easy.: I will miss each of you and especially, sharing music with you.
Thank you for allowing Connie and me present “Christmas Time Miracles.” It was truly a highlight for me. Your support has been a blessing to my entire family.
Although a retirement is in my future, my prayers will not retire. Connie and I will continue to pray for Alpine Lutheran Church to be a healthy and growing church spreading God’s love.
Respectfully in Christ,
Richard Dowling
From Pastor Don:
Alpine has been blessed by Richard’s gifts and faithfulness for the past fourteen years. He has served as a church musician for sixty years! Please join us in celebrating Richard and Connie on Sunday, August 18th. Details to follow.
Grace and Peace
