A Word Of Encouragement

Last Monday in staff meeting, Jeff challenged the staff to move past our survival thinking. We have had to entertain that mindset for months, but Jeff pointed o that it is time for us to think of the church thriving. I commend his challenge to all of us. Remember Peter’s words as he ended II Peter, “But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.” Grow! Thrive! Work! Believe!
