Thank You

To my brothers & sisters in Christ, Sure do appreciate all the cards and prayers sent to me during my recovery. Doing better, still going to physical therapy sessions. Have 7 more to go. Still very painful. Don’t know when I’ll be back in church. Keep your prayers coming! Sending all my love and best wishes, Doris Mathis


I want to thank the widows group for the sweet basket of goodies I received this week! Rosemary Fox delivered it and I enjoyed her visit! It was nice to be thought of after my husband, Nick, passed away. It’s been very difficult for me, but I have my faith to help me to get through this! Plus, all my church friends! In Christian Love to each of you. Anita Borski
