The Right Reverend Sean Rowe, Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Northwestern Pennsylvania, came on his day off to dedicate the Apple Tree Mural which fills the parish hall walls. The designer and painter was Jeri Hogan, a retired art teacher. She is a choir member and lay reader and wears many other hats around the parish.
Jeri and her mom.
Jeri gave lots of personal tours.
Even the men were interested. These two are brothers.
Our organist/choirmaster Bill Witherup gave an organ demonstration and mini recital as part of the Open House.
The artists in the diocese were invited to display and possibly sell their artwork. Only three did. Notice the bishop in the mirror.
A friend of Jeri's prepared a table full of goodies for us.
The "caterer" and the artist's mom.
The goodies were popular.
The gal in the middle was another of the painters.
The gal on the left is another of the painters.
Lots of visiting was done.
