THANKSGIVING - GRATITUDE
GIVE THANKS - GRATEFUL - THANKS
 
Thank You        
We are exceedingly grateful to Cindy Turner for all of her help
 in the church office during Angela's recent trip to Poland.
Even though she was facing surgery and planning a move to Houston,
both personally and professionally, she still made time to complete
the Easter bulletin, in addition to other work.
Please continue to pray for Cindy's recovery,
 Dexter's strength in giving care,
and Griffin's peace as he completes his college year and prepares to study in Germany for the summer.
