As we draw closer to the Holiday Season in which we celebrate a time of thankfulness just prior to remembering and appreciating the birth of our Savior, we thought it would be nice to observe the Thanksgiving season in a unique way.
During the month of November we will dedicate space on one of our walls in the church foyer as a “Wall of Thanks”. On this space we will hang paper, and we are asking each and every person who would like to share a thought, testimonial or drawing of what they are thankful for by using the supplied colored pencils to share.
I wanted to take a moment to send this e-mail to encourage you to take a few moments on this day to remember and pray for those who became victims of the terrorist attack on our Nation on September 11th, 2001.
While that day seems so long ago, in a way, it seems like it was only yesterday as most people know exactly where they were, and what they were doing when they first heard the word of the attacks in New York, Pennsylvania, and Washington, D.C.
I wanted to take a moment to send you a note of congratulations on a very special milestone in your life and family… the Graduation from College of your son/daughter (Name).
As we get closer to Easter Sunday, I wanted to be sure to reach out to you during this challenging time for so many.
While many of us are physically back at church, I realize some have chosen to stay away for a while longer. Please know that we certainly understand the desire to stay safe as we continue to go through this unprecedented pandemic.
I have little doubt that the Easter Season will seem quite a bit different watching services online, or quite possibly not at all! I do believe in the tremendous importance of being in church, yet it's a different day “for now.”
I wanted to take a moment to send you this note of encouragement as you are going through this challenging time in your life.
I'm often reminded of the beautiful story in the Book of Daniel of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. It's important to know that the same God that was there for them at that time is here for you and me now!
You may want to read the full story in Daniel Chapter 3, but I wanted to share a couple of verses with you that I trust will minister to you.
