KAILA M. SULLIVAN MEMORIAL DAY At the December 14th Council meeting, Mayor Mark Denman presented a proclamation naming December 10th as Sergeant Kaila M. Sullivan Memorial Day forever in the City of Nassau Bay. This special proclamation recognizes December 10, 2019 as the date the City of Nassau Bay lost Sergeant Kaila Marie Sullivan, a twenty-year Texas Peace Officer, and sixteen year veteran of the Nassau Bay Police Department. The City of Nassau Bay wishes to honor Sergeant Kaila Sullivan for her distinguished service and unwavering commitment to the Nassau Bay Police Department and citizens of Nassau Bay. As the City remembers Sergeant Sullivan’s ultimate sacrifice in protection of the Nassau Bay community, the proclamation emphasizes the needs to remember Sergeant Sullivan for years to come. Mayor Mark Denman ended his comments at the meeting by proclaiming every December 10th in perpetuity as “KAILA M. SULLIVAN MEMORIAL DAY” in the City of Nassau Bay to serve as a tribute to her legacy in the our community.

ST. THOMAS CELEBRATES 55 YEARS

On Sunday, December 20, 2020, the feast day of St. Thomas, St. Thomas the Apostle Episcopal Church celebrated 55 years as a church in Nassau Bay and the Clear Lake area. The congregation gathered for morning service, lunch, and musical entertainment. Fr. Mike Stone added to the celebration by burning the mortgage on the renovation of the main hallway. A $540,000 debt was paid off in two years due to a very successful capital campaign. This positions the church to accomplish even more wonderful things in the coming years as they reach out to all people to serve others. Congratulations, St. Thomas! For more information, contact the church at 291-333-2384.
