Join Us in Ripley for Worship at 10 am this Sunday (August 2, 2026)
This Sunday, our guest preacher is Betsy Goodell. Betsy and her husband, Jonathan, joined FCCW in 2017. She currently serves on the Diaconate, and she just wrapped up her nine-year leadership on the Outreach Ministry! Betsy is originally from Michigan but has been in the Northeast since college. She had a 36 year career at IBM, mostly in consulting and sales, and then retired to a much loved ‘encore career’ of ten years at a national nonprofit that prepares urban young adults for entry-level, career building corporate jobs. She is now into year 2 of retirement. Betsy has been married to Jonathan for 39 years and they joined FCCW when Jonathan retired as a UCC pastor. Jonathan and Betsy have three grown kids, 2 grandchildren with a third arriving next month, and a very active dog Bode.Betsy will deliver a message on this theme: “God is everything for me – and that comes real only through encountering God honestly and frequently.” Genesis 32:22-31 will shape our worship service. We hope to see you in Ripley Chapel for a time of fellowship, music, prayers, and gratitude to our Creator God. We will start our hymn sing at 9:55 AM, and we will upload the recording of the worship service to our YouTube channel after Hospitality Hour.
