“For we cannot keep from speaking about what we have seen and heard.” - Acts 4:20

Here on the “150th Anniversary” page I’d like to highlight a couple of key elements that make this part of the website stay alive.

First, there is always something new to help this community celebrate.

The last weekend in April, “Arts in the Garden” brought together creativity, talent, craftsmanship, passion, ministry, mission and support from the community.
The first weekend in May featured the rededication of our 1909 sanctuary and the dedication of the 2024 Carillon, a state-of-the-art collection of chimes dedicated to the glory of God and HMPC’s commitment to sharing the Good News.

Then, the folk who are committed to telling the Howard Memorial story are faithful, inspirational, very well organized and relentless!

So here’s a shout out to Faye Price and Cindy Brittain, who are coordinating all things 150, and then — the particular focus of this column — Ann Margaret Taylor, who is putting her creative passion to work by directing, filming and editing the video series that shares this page.

To date, seven interviews have been published and several more are in the pipeline.

These are the witnesses. And, just like Peter and John in the dramatic scene played out in Acts Chapter Four, they “cannot keep from talking about what we have seen and heard.”

Thanks, Ann Margaret, for helping to tell the story, and for showing how alive and vital God’s love is, both in and through the witnesses you are showcasing.

“And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone telling the story?” - Romans 10:14
