Dear Member:
Life is full of so many challenges. This is especially true for single fathers who are faced with working with hectic schedules, balancing their professional and personal lives, and striving to being a loving, supportive role model for their child(ren). Does this sound familiar?
Dear Church Member:
Parenting is a tough job! As a single parent, the challenges of raising children by yourself can be particularly difficult. Not only are you a sympathetic and loving mother, but also a disciplinarian and provider at the same time. With so many demands and expectations placed on you, it is no wonder that being a single parent can be very stressful.
Dear _______________:
I wanted to send you a personal note today to let you know how encouraged I am by the recent reconciliation of your marriage! As a Pastor, I routinely see the effects of daily struggle on marriage and I am very thankful that you have been able to work through a difficult time to reach this point of victory!
It is clear to me that marriage was intended to be permanent when our Creator fashioned this blessed union into the blueprint for mankind yet I know that the enemy routinely seeks to dismantle this sacred union through conflict and turmoil. I am rejoicing with you in the preservation of your relationship – and I will continue to pray for additional healing and grace for both of you.
Dear ____________ and ________________,
Greetings in the Name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!
I just wanted to take a moment to send a note of congratulations (and appreciation) to both of you upon your resolve to move forward in your marriage in reconciliation.
In this day and age, this is not always the “easiest” thing to do, and in fact, much of the counsel people receive is to just move on. Well, I want you to know that you are making a powerful statement for Godly marriage vows as you make this decision together.
I wanted to take a moment to send you this letter to let you know that you are in our thoughts and prayers here at First Christian Church.
While your husband/wife is serving our country, we realize that you are also sacrificing in ways that many of us simply do not understand. while the efforts of ________ are appreciated and highly valued, you continue to move forward with great resolve and determination that is very inspirational to so many people.
