Christ Church As New Rector

COOPERSTOWN – The Rev. Canon Dane E. Boston will join Christ Episcopal Church as its 23rd rector, the church's vestry and wardens announced today.  He succeeds the Rev. Mark Michael, who last year accepted a rector position at St. Timothy's Episcopal Church, Herndon, Va.

His arrival will leave one pastor vacancy among the village's five churches, at First Baptist Church, where the Rev. Douglas Deer retired to Cortland in 2014.   Last month, the Rev. Tom LeBeau of Lancaster, near Buffalo, joined Cooperstown United Methodist Church last month
