Guest Preacher, Bob Hornback
November 29th 1st Sunday of Advent
Dr. Hornback was ordained into the Florida conference in 1967. He was born in Cincinnati, Ohio. He holds degrees from four different colleges/universities and has served numerous UMC churches across the state. His last appointment was at Beymer as Sr. Pastor of Beymer for 12 years, retiring in 2007. He, wife of 36 years, Joyce, and rat terrier Petey live only a mile north of the church. Dr. Hornback plays trumpet in the Lakeland Concert Band and is an award-winning woodcarver and co-founder of Beymer’s wood carving group.

This is a sample of his latest project he shared with me. It is a cap from one piece of cherry wood, organist Patty’s father gave to him a dozen years ago. It is as if you could just reach out and feel the texture and folds, AND this is just a picture!
