Sunday, November 13, 2011

Reverend Rod led the congregation out to the hill for the Wind Turbine groundbreaking ceremony. The kids met the congregation, handing out pinwheels and hard hats. After introducing the Wind Task Force, and further remarks, Rod and the kids put the spade to the hill, …and activity which some children continued for nearly 20 minutes!  Numerous adults stepped forward to dig, and following a closing hymn, the congregation enjoyed another sumptious post-worship buffet.

The rest of the hole for the foundation will be dug this week.  For more details about the Wind Turbine, go to http://stcroixreformed.org/our-wind-turbine/

The following photos from 1992 were scanned from several photo albums.  Many of the original photos are worse-for-tropical-wear.  Please click the ‘comment’ feature on the bottom of this webpage to suggest captions, including the names of people you recognize in the photos.  In particular, we’re looking for additional photos of the 1992 Rededication Service held at the Lutheran Church in Christiansted.

We’re in the process of scanning  documents and photos from the church’s early years. Our goal is to both preserve them and make them accessible. If you have any photos or docs from the first years of the life of the church, please email neilmacqueen@gmail.com

The following are scans of several church historical documents, – including a copy of the worship bulletin from the 1992 Rededication of the church, as well as, different brief histories.  The 1992 Worship bulletin includes a list of the Founding Members.
