Farewell, Pastor Honey and Clinton

CHURCH NEWS

Hugs, cake and ice cream, and many other good things one would expect when saying “Farewell” to special people couldn’t happen because of COVID-19. However, we all joined together on Zoom on February 27 to share with Pastor Honey and Clinton Todd our most profound appreciation, love, and good wishes as we said “Farewell” after 16 years.

There were many tributes expressed, laughter at funny memories, learning things we had never known about the Todds in our trivia game, and viewing slides of special events that took place over the years. To add to the prominence of the occasion, we welcomed Mervyn and Tapuitea Todd from Australia, Sean and Kalie Todd from Nova Scotia, and Rhian Todd from Calgary.

In addition, friends who have moved away from Calgary joined from northern and southern British Columbia and as far away as Portugal. We are truly sad to see our friends move away to Lacombe, but we know the Lord is leading them and will lead our Mountain View Church family in the future.
