In his fifth year in the St. Paul's pulpit, Pastor David Caeisel felt the love in the Fellowship Room after Sunday worship on October 19, as his congregation celebrated him with a cake, gifts, and cards. Pastor David's leadership extends beyond St. Paul's into the community. He serves as president of AWARE--The Drug and Alcohol Community Coalition (formerly the Drug and Alcohol Task Force) and Chaplain of the Northport Fire Department. He is also the leader of a youth group comprised of youth from the North Shore Suffolk Cooperative Parish of Methodist congretations, for which Pastor David also serves on the administrative council. In addition to fellowship and education programs, the youth perform various community projects.
