Dear Friends in Christ,

I want to begin with a heartfelt thank you for all the birthday wishes you shared with me this past week. Your kindness and love mean so much, and I am grateful to be part of such a caring community.

I also want to thank you for welcoming Rev. Mitch Jarvis on Sunday. I can tell you were richly blessed by his knowledge and passion for our Lord, Jesus Christ. I'm not sure how I'm going to follow up this weekend after such a wonderful message about what it means for the church to be truly great. 

In addition, I continue to be encouraged by the listening sessions we’ve been holding. These gatherings are giving me wonderful insight into the heart of this church—your history, your faith, and the hopes you carry for the future. If you haven’t signed up yet, I would love the chance to sit down with you. Sign-up sheets are available in the Gathering Area.

Thank you for the many ways you embody Christ’s love. I am grateful to be on this journey with you.

Many blessings,

Pastor Angie
