Rev. RICK TATE - Pastor

Dear FUMC Buna,
Thanks again for the warm welcome you have given me as your new pastor and friend. I look forward to working with you as together we seek God's greater will and plan for this community of faith, our surrounding mission field, and our shared calling to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world. I know God has wonderful things in store for you all and this wonderful church family. Thank you so much for giving me the privilege and responsibility to serve you here. I look forward to getting to know you. See you Sunday.
