Letter from Father Keith
 March 16, 2011 Dear Friends, I want to take opportunity to share with you my thanks and my gratitude for your many kindnesses during my six months at St. Anne's. I treasure the friendships I made and I value the experiences we shared. St. Anne's is a wonderful place with a great and exciting future. I wish you all the very best as you meet the challenges and rewards of the days ahead. I also want to thank you for the great send-off on my last Sunday with you. Thank you for the photograph, the Celtic prayer, the chocolates ... and the enchiladas. It was a lovely time together and Joan and I enjoyed the fellowship, fun, and food. Perhaps most important during my time with you is the ongoing sense of Christian commitment and deeply felt understanding of God's work continuing in our midst. Each of you made a difference in my life. Please know of my love for you and my faith in the future of St. Anne's Episcopal Church. I look forward to our paths crossing again and again. Faithfully, The Rev. George A. Keith
