Join us for Pastor Rick's last sermon with The Neighborhood Church of Palos Verdes Estates. Pastor Rick stepped in following the retirement of Pastor David Young and lovingly walked with us through times of both celebration and sorrow. His steady and compassionate presence helped carry us through the passing of our beloved Minister, Michael Moorhead, the career transition of Lauren Hardin, the retirement of our long-time Director of Music, David Sateren, and more. Through each shift and season, Pastor Rick offered wisdom, warmth, and unwavering care. As we prepare to welcome a new chapter in the life of our church, we pause to honor the one who has shepherded us so well through transition. Pastor Rick has been more than a guide—he has been a source of comfort, encouragement, and grace. His leadership will leave a lasting imprint on our community, and his absence will be deeply felt. We send him off with our heartfelt thanks and our sincerest prayers—for healing, for rest, and for joy in life’s simple pleasures. May this next season bring him peace, renewal, and the same deep care he has so freely given to us.
