 A Note from Todd Owen and the Missions Team: 
Robert Barnett has stepped up to be our Habitat for Humanity Coordinator.  We appreciate Robert stepping into this position to keep the needs of Habitat for Humanity before us and to guide us in how our ministry groups and individuals can serve on build teams.
 
We are so grateful for Brian Bradley's many years of service as our Habitat project coordinator.  Brian has decided it is time for him to step down from this position.  For nearly 20 years, Brian has been the face of Habitat for Aldersgate.  The Missions Team would like to thank Brian for his dedicated service unto God through Habitat for Humanity.  When you see Brian around Aldersgate, be sure to thank him for helping us serve God through Habitat all these years. 
 
Thanks again Brian!
