NORWAY — The Norway Center Church welcomes guest minister Pastor Ron Blake on Sunday, August 21 at 10 a.m.
Ron Blake was raised in Florida and retired to Maine in 2000. He was raised in the Lutheran Church because his mother was Norwegian and that was the national church of Norway. While serving in the Orlando Police Department, in Florida, Ron joined the Southern Baptist Church and became involved with its Foreign Mission program. Having also earned a builder’s license in the state of Florida, Ron served as the construction coordinator on projects in the Dominican Republic, Panama, and Mexico for two years. Here in Maine, he served as pastor of Paris Hill Baptist Church from 2001-2005 while attending seminary at Andover Newton.
All denominations are welcome! Coffee and refreshments will be served after the service.
Music is provided by organist Ryan Slocum and Caroline Coffin, singer/guitarist.
