Thank you to our church family for your overwhelming support these past months as we have transitioned into my new role as Lead Pastor. Melissa, Ember, Jaden, and I are so blessed to have been led here and to be able to continue to serve our church in this new capacity moving forward. We are so grateful for the encouragement and affirmation we have received and were blown away by the generosity in response to the letter sent out by the Elder Board. Thank you for your vote of confidence. We are eagerly looking forward to this next phase in the life of our church and to many more years of serving God's Kingdom together.
-Matt & Melissa |
