A BIG THANK YOU TO
PASTOR DICK SMITH & MRS. ANNE SMITH

Pastor Dick’s last day with us was July 202. His remaining time at BUMC was bittersweet and marks the end of one chapter and the beginning of another.

Our appreciation for all that the pastor has done for us and our community and wish him well in his new position at New Hope United Methodist.
