IF THERE WAS EVER A TIME WHEN WE NEEDED LOVE AND SUPPORT,
IT WAS NOW. First Church and its members lifted us up with a flood of love,
food, supply, prayer, and care. We cannot thank you enough. We ask you to
continue in prayer for healing and, also, that God’s will in this be revealed and that
He be glorified in all things. We believe, more than ever, that He will do a
miraculous work, according to His Word through His disciples, here at First Church.
God bless you all. In His love, Julie Moore Foster and Family
A SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR FIRST CHURCH FAMILY for your prayers,
kind words, phone calls, and gifts given during the loss of my brother and our uncle.
May God bless you my brothers and sisters. Cecil Spence and family
