A Word of Thanks...

I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now
Philippians 1:3-5 NIV

When I take a few minutes to think about all the people with whom I work side-by-side for the sake of the Gospel, I am blown away. I think of mentors and teachers who have influenced me. I think of friends I have walked alongside for years. I think of my brothers and sisters on the other side of the world. I think of my church family that I see every Sunday morning.



This Sunday our CrossRoads Church family is going to be thanking and celebrating some of our most important partners in the Gospel. Our little church, who for right now has about 100 people each Sunday morning, has about 25 people who serve regularly teaching our children the truth of the Gospel. To all of you who serve in this most important task, thank you. Thank you for loving our children and our church family enough to take the time and energy it takes to tell our most important Sunday morning attenders the most important truth they will ever hear. You are investing in people who have as many as 80 years in front of them to be our partners in the Gospel because you are taking time to touch their lives now.

Truly, there are no words to sufficient to express my thanks. Keep up this best work! We need you to continue to answer this most important call to share the Gospel with our most important people. You're awesome! THANK YOU!
