Dear Friendship Circle,

Thank you so much for the beautiful card. I appreciated it very much! Thanks for thinking of me!

Always, Emily Russell

David and I would like to thank everyone for their prayers and support. We also would like to thank all who have helped us financially during this difficult time. There are no words of thanks and appreciation that could express how we feel. It is good to know that your Christian family is there for you in a time of need.

God Bless, David and Debbie Rahmoeller

Summer Musicians

We would like to thank those musicians who have brought and will bring their talents to us during the summer months during the Chancel Choir’s hiatus. With the voices, piano/organ specials, the guitar/banjo surprises, etc. and Milly Peterson’s substituting for Becky Young on the organ, we continue to have outstanding music during the summer. Thanks to all of you for sharing your gifts with the congregation and to the glory of God!

Tom Richards, Music Director

A BIG THANK YOU to all of our church friends for the beautiful cards and joining in the celebration of our 50th Wedding Anniversary. We also want to thank the Friendship Circle for serving the reception and doing a super job as always.

We have so much to be thankful for.

May God Bless each of you.

Bob and Eleanor Lockhart

Many thanks for your recent gift in support of the Council of Churches. Your gift will be put to work immediately.

Your gift comes at just the right time! As we welcome the warm weather, thoughts of vacation enter our minds. Since the needs of our community continue throughout the summer, we are thankful for your gift that enables the Council and its operating agencies to serve the community without interruption.

Sincerely,

The Rev. David W. Hockensmith, Jr., D. Min.,

Executive Director
