Honorary Life
Membership

awarded to
Molly Griner
On Mother's Day at Hope Church,
we celebrate the service of women of this Church and around the
world. There are a few who just seem to
stand out though. These are women who are relentless in
their continual service to Christ and the mission of the Church.
Molly Griner is one of
those women! Please join us as we congratulate Molly, our
newest recipient of the Honorary Life Membership of Presbyterian Women award.
