SUMMARY:Retirement of Rev. James Clarke - Sudbury
DESCRIPTION:Reverend James Clarke has served the congregation at Copper Cliff United Church for the past 21 years. \nUnfortunately for us\, James has decided it is his time to retire.  James and Heather are relocating to the Cambridge area where Heather has been working for the last year \nor so.  Considering the times we are in\, it is impossible to organize an event suitable to the occasion. So we have  planned and confirmed a drive by type of event. \nWe invite you to join us. \nDate: Saturday\, 29th May 2021 \nTIme: 2:00 – 3:30 pm \nLocation: Copper Cliff United Church \n26 Park Street\, Copper Cliff \n  \nThe event will deviate some from what we consider normal practice for a drive by\,  we will not be congregating at a meeting point and doing a drive-by. \nBut rather:  Folks are asked to come by the Church between 2 pm and 3:30 pm.  With staggered attendance\, this will give folks a chance to stop and share a few words \nwith James. Thus avoiding any grouping of people\, congestion of traffic and horn honking.  We ask that\, when attending\, folks approach the church from Godfrey drive so that they \ncan stop just in front of the church to share their time with James.  If there is a lineup of traffic on Park Street\, please be patient – drive around the block to wait a few minutes\, giving others their opportunity. \nAnd\, yes we do expect there will be some pedestrian traffic. \n  \nThank you \nDianne Carter on behalf of the \nCopper Cliff United Church Council \n  \nJames is aware of the event.  Should some wish to communicate with James\, his contact information is: \nemail: j47clarke@gmail.com \nHome Phone: 705 682-0232 \nMail: 8 Jones Street\, PO Box 462 \nCopper Cliff\, ON P0M 1N0
