Celebrate Doug Baker’s 35th Anniversary as Our Sexton during coffee hour this Sunday, June 7
Join us as we extend a special thank-you to guest-of-honor Doug Baker for all that he does at First Parish! There will be special treats, so bring the entire family. This is our opportunity to let Doug know how much we appreciate his artistic talents, his dedication, his knowledge, his love of history, his kindness to parishioners young and old and canine, and his stamina for putting up with us for 35 years! We hope to see everyone there.
