Good morning,

 

As the afterglow begins to subside, I want to share with you my deepest appreciation for the wonderful Installation Service on Saturday.  The choir (with piano/organ) was wonderful, readings warmly delivered, sermon inspiring, reception delicious, and the presence of God's love and joy was palpable.  The stole is gorgeous and the gift of your presence was something I won't ever forget (helped by the pictures and digital recording!).

 

Again, thank you to all who 'made it happen' and participated or helped in all the many ways.  This is just one example (of many) that reflects the congregation's kind and generous spirit...and why it is so easy to love each of you and this congregation!  

 

I hope you join in my excitement about the places where God will lead us and the ministry we are called to do -- TOGETHER!  So many have yet to hear about God's unconditional love in Word and see it in action...as Rev. Elder Darlene Garner said "God's love with skin on it." 

 

May God lead us, love us, and anoint our ministry for many many years to come.  Saturday was just the beginning!

Faithfully,
Rev. Aaron
