But most of all, thank you for all the prayers.” – A.M.

“Sometimes ‘thank you’ just isn’t big enough. Following our reception, cake, and gift, we find ourselves in that difficult position of expressing our love to the finest, most sincere, and loving church congregation in our memory. That’s not an exaggeration; it’s just our true feelings. Our hearts and minds are filled with your loving spirit and our souls are enriched by your Christian faith. You will always remain in our prayers.” – C.B.

“In church, I asked for prayers for our daughter. Two days ago I came home and had a wonderful message on our answering machine from a deacon from the church just offering support and comfort for her during this time. These are the little things that make us so happy to have found such a friendly and welcoming church family! Thank you for your thoughts and prayers.” – N.S.
