On January 9, 2005, at 4 p.m., Rev. Philip Charles McLain was installed as our new pastor at Our Savior Lutheran, Nashville Tennessee.
In November, Pastor McLain
accepted a call to become our pastor at Our Savior Lutheran.

Lutheran Church in Winston-Salem, North Carolina as pastor for the last 16 years.

All three choirs were there. This is the Hand Bell Choir. The Trumpet was played by Elizabeth Gulley.
This is the Traditional Adult Choir, which was lead by Cynthia Lucianno.
