Rev.8/27/06     SEPTEMBER 10, 2006 Every year, there is that special day in September when we regroup from Summer vacation, energized and raring to go. This year it is September 10 which is the kickoff of our new season of faith and worship, service and fellowship. And 2006 is a special year for First Presbyterian. Besides our annual Homecoming Sunday - with picnic in the park (following our 9:30 service), this year we also rejoice in the Installation of our new Co-Pastors. Rev. Doctor Miriam Lawrence Leupold and Rev. Glenn Leupold will be installed as our new Co-Pastors by the Albany Presbytery on Sunday, at the 9:30 service. Click here for their welcoming message. Miriam is a graduate of the College of William and Mary and received her Master of Divinity degree from Princeton Theological Seminary, and her Doctor of Ministry from Columbia Theological Seminary, Decatur GA. Glenn is a graduate of the University of Minnesota and received his Master of Divinity from Princeton Theological Seminary. The Leupolds had been associate pastors of Westminster Presbyterian Church, Dayton, Ohio since 1994. Participating in the installation will be the Rev. Amy J.
