Saying thank you takes such little effort yet pays such great rewards.
As I sit on the platform looking out on the congregation I see a diverse people that touches my heart. I am your pastor and I cannot help but appreciate you. You’re so faithful to come to the House of God because you love God so very much. Every so
often I (do what Jesus said to His disciples to do), I watch and pray during the worship service and see one with hands raised to the Lord with tears streaming down their face. Another is rejoicing and magnifying their Savior. Someone else is lost in His presence as though caught up into heavenly places, and all of us are blessed and refreshed by the God from whom all blessings flow.

I want to say thank you for loving God, and caring for each and every brother and sister in the Lord, and praying for them helping to lift their heavy burdens. Thank you for loving your pastor and wife and praying for us daily. How can I help but appreciate such a wonderful congregation which makes praying for you a pleasure and privilege. Above and beyond all of this, God Himself appreciates your expressions of love for one another which also, is absolute proof of your love to your heavenly Father (I John 4:16).

From the pastors pen;
