Dear Servants
of Christ,
God
bless you all for your work and joy on Sunday. It was a wonder to behold. 225 people made more meals, repaired
more bikes, painted more walls, stocked more shelves, made more pj's, pulled up more plants, and so much more . .
. and had more fun than we dreamed. That is the wonder of our life in God. He is able to do far more than we can
ask or imagine. Sunday was just such a day. God's work, our hands make for such a blessing.
Together we all had opportunity
to give glory to God and to be faithful in small things that made a big difference. From the bottom of
my heart, my deepest thanks to each of you for making last Sunday possible. I never cease to be humbled by the grace
and capacity of God and by the strength and mercy of the people of God.
See you all on Sunday as we celebrate together what God has done and what God is
doing. Thank you again.
In Christ, Pastor Laura
