Congratulations to ET's own Don Tosh!
It was a very happy new year for Don as he celebrated his 61st birthday by climbing Mount Kilimanjaro. On Dec. 29, Don - along with four other climbers, two guides and 15 porters — embarked upon the 60-mile journey. Don was the oldest of the group by more than 20 years. "I don't like doing things the easy way," he said. The trip took about 28 hours of climbing to ascend the mountain and nine hours to descend. Don is one of ET's faithful sound/media engineers and sits high up in the balcony!
A New Ministry Opportunity has been presented to ET in providing a weekly Bible study/service to the residents of the Gardens Independent Condominium Community. The first service was conducted on Thursday morning and will continue each Thursday under the direction of Pastor Gordon and Carol Falconer. Watch for more updates and ministry opportunities as we build a ministry team and this exciting ministry.
