It has been my great priviledge to have been the pastor at Evangelical and Reformed Church since August of 2004.

The old Church building was a wondrous thing. I especially loved the stained glass windows. The earliest windows in the old sanctuary dated from the first World War. The one in the lower right part of this message was just so glorious, welcoming and warm. All the wondows gave one a real sense of belonging--a place apart. On Sunday mornings when the sun was shining, the window on the east side of the building was marvelously ablaze. One of our Sunday School kids said when coming forward for the Children's Sermon looked at the window and said, "Look! fire!"

These windows are now gone as a result of the fire of December 4th 2005. We are currently in the process of developing designs for a new building which will likely be on the same site. We hope that the new windows, however they are formed, will be lenses for the triumphal glory of God.

Our offices have been moved to 1220 S. Grand Avenue, 53186.

We will now be worshipping at the Masonic temple located at 317 South Street in Waukesha, from 9 to 10 each Sunday morning.

We plan to move into the new building in September of 2008.

We'll do all we can to keep people informed about all that takes place.

Jim Gorman, Pastor
