Dear Friends,

Thank you for your efforts and decision to send your 100% connectional giving to the District during 2020. Your purposeful giving at the start of a new year reveals your congregation’s abiding faith, health, and generosity, and allows us to begin a new year with the assurance that we can sustain current and formulate new ministries to build and support God’s kingdom.

Offering a simple “Thank You” never quite feels like enough, as your contribution helps bring about our mission to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world. Your giving reflects Christ’s call to give completely of ourselves so that others may know the love of God in their lives.

May God continue to bless your ministry and guide your congregation through the remainder of 2020! My prayers are with you.

Grace and Peace,

Rev. Linda Harris

Please convey my appreciation to whoever made and delivered the lovely Mother’s Day surprise. The lemon bars and chocolate clusters were both delicious! I’ll plant the morning glory seeds and enjoy them. Thank you.

Dear Church,

It was such a nice surprise to see a woman from St. Andrew’s at my door! Not only was she bringing me a special gift, but she was doing a service for the church and the parishioners. I was overjoyed! This was so thoughtful!!

I know I haven’t been to services in a while, but I haven’t forgotten any of you. I maintain my relationship with God, the father and in his son Jesus who saves us all.

I so appreciated seeing that smiling face as she handed me the flower pot of goodies! Seeds and growing flowers is a favorite of mine. And whomever made those delicious cookies-they were absolutely amazing! I plan on planting the forget-me-nots out from under one of my trees by the drive.

I thank you for remembering me this past Mother’s Day. This gesture will not be forgotten. Blessings to you all-as we are all God’s children.

With sincere thanks and love,

Bonnie Graves
