On Sunday, March 8, the Mattapoisett Congregational Church (MCC) will honor Ken Stickney and celebrate his 60 years of dedicated service to the church in worship, with lunch immediately following. Ken and his wife, Ollie, joined the Church in 1958 and almost immediately, both became active in its many activities and programs. Ken joined the choir, singing bass although “not very loudly” and then switching to tenor as the choir was “short of tenors”. Subsequently, he took on various roles including chairman of the church council and responsibilities as a member of the board of deacons, finance committee, and moderator. Suffice it to say, there is no board or committee in the church to which he has not played an important part.
Ken has also given an incalculable number of hours over 30-40 years as a volunteer in civic organizations in Mattapoisett, such as the Food Pantry and Soup Kitchen, FISH, Sippican Choral Society, the Intergenerational Chorus at Center School and many others.
Should you wish to attend this celebration, please call the church office at 508-758-2671 no later than Friday, March 7 between the hours of 8:30 am and 1:00 pm.
