Thanksgiving Tradition

Every year at my home church we have a Thanksgiving Day service. It is one of my favorite services of the year because we focus on what we are thankful for and how the Lord has blessed in the past year. It's a great time of reflecting and glorifying Him. Since I can't be there this year, I decided to share some of the things that I'm thankful for from now until Thanksgiving day. So, here it goes....

Grace Church is my home church and I love it there. I have an incredible church family that is supportive, encouraging and affirming of me serving in Peru. It is such a blessing to have this group of believers behind me, praying for me every step of the way. When I reflect back over the years that I've been there I think of all that I have learned, about the people who have poured themselves into me, the friends that I've walked beside (and who have walked beside me) in good and hard times and how the Lord has stretched me in ways I would have never imagined.
