The Dean preached at both the 8:00 and 10:00 services. We had some technical difficulties with the 10:00 live stream, but were able to get the stream backpack up just in time for the sermon! There was an adult formation between services that was recorded and we hope to make that available as soon as possible.  After the 10:00 service, there was a reception for the Dean. The women of St. Francis presented prayer shawls to the Dean and his wife, Mathabo.
