Pastor Olie Andersen has reached 40 years of ministry, and we have recieved the following note from his congregation:
"Hello to our Labrador Friends! Pastor Olie Andersen has reached his 40th Anniversary as an ordained minister serving our Lord and Savior. The Saratoga Moravian Church in Wisconsin is having a special celebration Sunday, Sept. 23rd. We would love to include any special greetings from his family and friends in Labrador. I know this is late getting to you, but maybe you could pass the word around and/or forward this to the appropriate people. Please email any greetings you may have and we will share them during the worship service. If anyone would like to send a card later it would be more than welcome too. Please give thanks during you worship for this servant of God and his witness to Jesus word.
Serving Christ,
Jeanne Eggebrecht

And Sr Joan Anderson has sent back the following message on behalf of the MCNL:
"Dear Olie,
Congratulations on your 40th anniversary of ministry. What about the stamina and endurance of these Labradorians, eh?!
Labrador is proud to have one of our own serving God and others for the many years that you have answered the call.
We wish you joy on your special day of celebration, and as you reflect back on your years of ministry, may they bring you a strong sense of accomplishment.
May God bless you and Rita, who has worked beside you through it all.
Sincerely,
Joan Andersen
Chair, Moravian Church in Labrador"
