Relaunch
After more than five years, it's time for an overhaul to this website!
I'm pulling over the content between my duties at the seminary and church. If there are particular pages you'd like to see reappear sooner rather than later, let me know!
In the meantime:
Check www.sewickleypresby.org or www.pts.edu to find out what I'm up to!
