Ephesians 4:2
"Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit though the bond of peace."
I wanted to take a moment and thank all of you ladies who served with Ted and I this week at VBS. I am so moved by your heart of service to further the gospel in the lives of children and the community He has placed us in. I was so moved and encouraged to see the giftings emerge out of you as you served and interacted with one another. Everybody kept commenting to me, "We had no conflicts! Everybody did their part, nobody complained, everybody served so well together!" I agree! Even though there were plenty of opportunities to complain and to get overwhelmed, you all kept your eyes on Jesus, you chose to look up and to remember to "make every effort..." to keep peace and to overlook offences. The Lord is pleased, I am humbled by your encouragement, by your willingness to serve with us, and for your Love for your Savior. I can not thank you enough!
Thank you for taking the challange along with us! You and Ted demonstated such great leadership. I was glad to able to work with you all and serve our church and community. My pastor in Corpus always told us "If not us, then who?". love you guys, Selena
