Pastor's Note
I so appreciated the update from Ken Fletcher and our Finance Team this past weekend. To see how God is undergirding his work here through your faithful tithes and offerings is a HUGE encouragement to us all! Be sure and pick up your quarterly statement and my personal update on our ministry. They are located at the usher station.
Many Harvesters have experienced health challenges and grief these past few weeks. It is truly a wonder to watch the "church be the church" as collectively we reach out and support one other in challenging times. May God continue to deepen and expand our love for one another!
By the way, last Sunday evening we had 60 middle and senior high school students here for our Taco Night and a lesson on trusting God in times of difficulty. We had many guests including youth groups from Lutz, Land O' Lakes and Plant City!
Pray for our Church Council as they meet this Saturday morning to begin digesting the feedback from the Spiritual Life Survey. We appreciate each of you who took the time to provide your input!
