Happy 35^th!

Happy Anniversary PCC-35 years of Service and Ministry

Congratulations! Today is a very special day in our church family. With the worship this morning and continuing throughout today we remember and celebrate 35 years of  ministry here in Berea and to our Lord, Jesus Christ. My heart is so thankful; my spirit is  humbled; and my love for God grows deeper and wider as I continue to serve him in this capacity as your shepherd and spiritual leader.

 I hope you saw in The News Sun the article titled: “Church Celebrates Anniversary.” It appeared in last Thursday’s paper, April 3 on page A7. I suggest it for your reading and for your remembering our wonderful past. In the article written by Jamie Anton she cites  milestones and experiences that many of you will remember. I find these good memories and they remind me of God’s goodness and love for us all these many years.

I am looking forward to today with great joy. I am very thankful to God that he has willed it so that I have been a part of our history for more than thirty-two years. Again, congratulations! Let’s remember! Let’s celebrate! Let’s praise him! Let’s keep on keeping on for our Lord with our whole hearts.
