Thank you, Gretna, for the warm and caring welcome this past Sunday. My family and I are deeply grateful for your open arms. We are looking forward to celebrating many birthdays and milestones with you all—it was a joy to have Ethan's first birthday as our first celebration together!
Your generosity, care for one another, and dedication to your community give me hope. As we spend more time together, I know we will experience many ways that God is present in our lives. I can hardly wait!
God asked Jonah to do something unexpected and unimaginable. I believe God is calling Gretna to continue its wonderful work and be open to new opportunities. As we get to know God and each other better, we can look to the future with awe and excitement for what God has in store for us. Don’t forget your marveling glasses!
Thank you for being willing to continue writing the story of Gretna UMC with me.
Gratefully yours,
Pastor Marissa
