Your Appreciation is Appreciated!

On behalf of Kristen, I want to send along our deepest thanks for the flowers, the bulletin message, the card, and your personal notes that you gave us last Sunday. It really meant a lot to us! Your personal notes were touching (Kleenex, please) and very encouraging, even if we couldn't interpret one of them (no habla Espanol)!

While we're giving out thanks, we need to be just as thankful for the rest of our leaders. James and Vicki are superb team players -- experienced, flexible, dependable, sincere and eagerly willing to do lots of little things that aren't really little at all. Carl is our gentle giant, with a pastor's heart and a love for studying and teaching the Word. Stephen doesn't just play guitar, he strives to take us before the throne in worship of our awesome God. Libby, well, she's makin' a list and checkin' it twice (i.e., does a fine job keeping track of attendance and personal info that is essential to the E-Team's success). What we do at BSBC Youth is a team effort -- the only way to do it.

And you teens, you are great! Fun, smart, teachable, bold, and hard-working are a few descriptive words that come to mind. Most of all, those of you who have trusted Christ are children of God, made for His glory! It is truly a joy to work with you and build into you, and see you take steps of faith. All of the leaders desire nothing less than God's best for each of you!

Now let's not all rest on these kind words! Let's use them as fuel to our spiritual fires, that we may burn even brighter for Jesus! Stay strong in Christ, "the bread of life"!
