Dutilh 175 Video
Although Pastor Debbie Pisor is unable to attend, she kindly shared some of her favorite memories from her time serving at Dutilh Church.
Pastor Debbie served at Dutilh Church from 2007 - 2013. From 2007 - 2009, she worked as Director of Family Ministry, where her role was to work with ministry teams and individuals seeking to understand their spiritual gifts and fulfill their call to serve God in many different ways. She helped to resource and equip teams to grow in their relationships with God and take God's Good News to the community.
From 2010-2013, Pastor Debbie served as Pastor of Externally Focused Ministry and Mars Campus Pastor. She also deployed many in regional missions through partnerships with regional organizations and worked with many great people of faith striving to be God's hands and feet in the places they go.
Favorite Memories of Dutilh Church
“The day Mars Home for Youth hosted the quilting group to lunch and decided the ladies were all going to meet the girls who were getting the quilts. Unloading the pumpkins for the pumpkin patch like a water brigade out of the truck. Family Ministry Team events complete with decorations we borrowed from friends and neighbors! Susan Boddy's meals! Mission Team meetings! Mars Campus Quilt Show events (Pies, Posies ...). The big small group I led and the wonderful study and fellowship we shared.”
