After many years of faithful leadership and service Bob and Carolyn Seidel retired December 31, 2013 from the Deacon Body of the Oakton Church of the Brethren. During the Oakton Church worship service on Sunday, January 12, expressions of appreciation were shared for Bob and Carolyn’s years of service with the deacons where they had several duties including, most recently, vice-chair, chair, and secretary. The recognition
service ended in a standing ovation and a beautiful vase of roses was placed on the worship table in their honor. The Seidels have served in various capacities of service and leadership at Oakton Church where Bob currently holds our highest elected office as our Moderator. Bob and Carolyn will also continue to make communion bread, play in the bell choir, and manage the Joys and Concerns list. Thank you Bob and Carolyn.
