January 1st was the beginning of my 8th month of ministry with you.  WOW how time fly's!  You are a very active congregation.  Quick to say yes when you sense your yes today can build a better tomorrow.  You have a sense of urgency, knowing our time on earth goes by at nearly warp speed.  This sense of urgency is catching.  The excitement of your faith is heartfelt and of sufficient depth to invite others to "come and see" what being a disciple of Jesus is all about.

 VBS, the Halloween Party, the Christmas Play, The Christmas Eve Service, the Free Mobile Food truck, staffing the Mission House, Wednesday Night Live, Sunday morning learning and worship and so much more represent the vitality of God's goodness among you and your eager desire to bear witness to God's love in Christ.

 Thanks for embracing me and my daughters with open arms.  Thanks for the unexpected Christmas bonus.  Thanks for being true to yourselves and the Gospel.  You are a blessing and the future is BRIGHT!  Speaking of the future, we look forward to the Valentine's Dinner in February; our next Free Mobile Food truck on March 31st, Holy Week leading up to Easter Sunday April 8th; Humor Sunday; and so much more!  

 In Service to the Gospel, Greg
