June 2025 - Moderator's Report

First off, I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who takes time from their busy schedule to volunteer - providing their experience, talents and time to help make our community strong, efficient and an effective force in supporting the opening statement on our new website: “No matter where you are on life’s journey, you are welcome here.”

Regarding our website, special thanks from all of us to Candice for our new website! It is extremely well done and does an excellent job representing who we are and what we stand for to the surrounding community and to the entire globe. Words cannot properly express my appreciation. And thank you to Jade as well, who helped make this possible and has agreed to maintain our website going forward.

Even though we have seen the conclusion of another season, attendance, both in the sanctuary on Sunday’s and watching remotely, continues to be strong. It was truly amazing to hear that our newest visitors last Sunday discovered us through our new website. It is my hope that we will continue to spread our message to the outside world – so in these times of stress, pain, anger and hate, we can offer a shining light to those that are lost, hurting or simply looking for a new way forward.

More to come…

“Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.” - Winston Churchill

Thank you and may God Bless.
