RE:      Financial Gift and Field Parish Service
 
Thank you for taking me into your community. You have all been a blessing to me. You have taught me many things and shared your lives and time with me. Our faith journey has been and will be short, but much filled. Thank you for all the gifts and blessings. Your final gift was truly gracious and generous. These gifts are very special to me and I will keep them with me and use them in my ministry.
 
Every person that I speak with in my ministry will be impacted by and be shared in by your ministry during these two short years we have worshiped together. I look forward to worshiping with you and working with you during these next two months.
 
My hope is, that in some small measure, I have been a help to your congregation and ministry. As we continue forward in the work of Christ, strive to die to self and grow in Christ, always seek to do the will of God and Christ, and serve others whenever and wherever you can in the name of Christ Jesus our Lord.
 
The Grace and Peace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
