Giving Gratitude I do not cease to give thanks for you as I remember you in my
prayers. ~Ephesians 1:16
Please find the closest Deacon, and give them a
big bear hug! We are so blessed to have such an
amazing crew to provide love and support in times
of sadness and celebration.
For the past several weeks, the Deacons have been
our bonding glue. They hosted a fabulous
Pentecost Picnic, a beautiful Farewell Reception
for the Brock-Brimers, served as a pillar of love
and support to Shirley Brasfield and family, and
helped provide comfort to Anita Fackler-Waller
and family during her last earthly days.
Thank you Deacons!
A special thank you to our wonderful Funeral
Coordinators, Jane Evans and Kathy Phelps, for
hosting two lovely funeral receptions in honor of
Shirley Brasfield and Dr. Anita Fackler-Waller.
A special note of thanks to all our wonderful
members for donating food, their time, and for
keeping these families in your prayers!
