We thank Carolyn for her for her dedicated service in providing inspiring music and choir direction. We will miss her but we wish her the very best in her new position.

To the Wonderful folks of Wye Parish

It has been my privilege to serve as your choir director for the past couple of years.  However, a new opportunity has come along that I think will work better for me logistically.   I have accepted a position in Easton (within walking distance from my apartment.)  My last Sunday with you will be May 21^st.

My time working with the people of Wye Parish has been a delight and I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished.  I will miss you all and pray that God will continue to direct you as you search for a new rector and make decisions about the future direction of the parish.

Peace,

Carolyn Cutler

QRF is a new 501C-3 nonprofit developed by Erik Peterson, USMC, Caroline Co. Sheriff’s Office (ret), and the son of members Jean & Bill Peterson.

QRF was created by Erik for volunteer first responders to assist victims of disasters in the Mid-Atlantic Region. They will ride into the areas affected by tornadoes, hurricanes, flood, fire and building collapse, or wherever needed. They will also be engaged in a local mission in concert with local law enforcement to respond to Silver Alerts, Amber Alerts, Autism walk-offs, Evidence Searches and locating missing children. In addition, a former narcotics officer on staff will present educational programs on the dangers of drugs in our communities.

Now in launch phase, QRF needs our support, through donation of items needed for disaster victims in shelters, and for equipment to aid in search and rescue on disaster sites. Boxes will be available in both our churches. Please take a few moments to check out the QRF web site to learn more.

If you would like to give flowers in memory or in honor of a loved one, please call the parish office for more details and to to reserve a date.
