By The Rev. Dr. Carl Grosse

Denise and I would like to take this installment and say thank you. God brought us here to do some work and we hope our work has helped you. What we did not anticipate was how warmly we’d be welcomed, how kindly we’d be treated, and how hard it would be to leave. Whatever good we might have done here, you have given us a great gift that we will continue to cherish every time we think of you, which will be often. Denise and I sincerely pray the love you showed us will continue to grow so that everyone who comes under the sway of this church family will be blessed as we have been. Take care of Pastor Susan, take care of each other, and take care of the sheep who will come into your fold.
