On behalf of Linda and myself, I would like to say "thank you" to the people of Peace Lutheran Church. 

V      Thank you for your active, lively, and faith-filled response to the Gospel and the ministry that you do in the name of Jesus Christ.

V      Thank you for your prayers of support, healing, and hope that you have lifted up during this past year.

V      Thank you for the many cards, notes, comments, cookies, and love that you have provided this past year.

V      Thank you for the very generous gifts you have given us for Christmas.

V      Thank you for responding generously each time there has been a request for meals, cookies, mittens, gifts, food, and money.

V      Thank you for allowing me to be your pastor for these past 5 years.  (I am looking forward to the next 5!)  

God has called us together to continue to fulfill the Great Commission to "go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit."    Together, in 2008, we WILL Gather, Grow, and Go Forth in the name of Christ!

 Glad to be your pastor.

            Michael
