A Time of Gratitude.

When COVID struck a year ago no one had any idea what it was, how it would effect people, how businesses would be altered and how we would continue to gather as a faith community.  You rallied extremely well and continued to support us as me made adjustments and have continued to provide services in ways I/we never anticipated or thought we could do.  Thank you.  Some people became unemployed.  Others were retired.  Some were forced to sell their homes and move away.  Others stepped forward and increased their donations with the knowledge that some would need to decrease theirs.  Your generosity has enabled us to maintain ministry and develop new ways that we will probably continue to use as we all make adjustments for months and years ahead.  As we look to get back to a more typical way of doing ministry as well as continue the new ways we developed, we continue to need your financial support.  In the last 4 years we have reduced our staff as those people have moved on to other things in their life.  As we now look to rebuilding the staff we need your financial support more than ever.  I ask you to look at your pattern of giving and see if it is a true expression of your gratitude to God for what he has given us and how he has guided us through this pandemic.
