On Tuesday 10th February, we in Milford and Letterkenny marked a significant milestone: twenty-five years of Rev. Mark Loughridge’s ministry among us.

This special anniversary was celebrated with church lunches in both congregations across two Sabbaths in April. During these gatherings, many shared heartfelt expressions of gratitude for Mark and Judith, as well as for Eva, Cara, and Zoe. It was a joy to reflect on all that God has accomplished over the years. The family was presented with a number of gifts, including a unique picture of a tree created from the fingerprints of church members.

We give thanks for 25 years of faithful service and pray for the Lord grants Mark and Judith many more years of faithful service in Letterkenny and Milford.
