Dear Friends,
Judy and I are so grateful for the generous gifts and many well-wishes you sent our way upon the completion of my interim with you. I am honored to be named your Pastor Emeritus along with Pastor Morris and Pastor Kasting!
We will be traveling and visiting family and friends both near and far over the next few months. We will keep you and your new Pastor in our prayers, and we look forward to the next time we will visit you in person.
This is a prayer I came across that seems very fitting:

Lord God, You so tend the vine You planted that now it extends its branches even to the farthest shore. Keep us in Your Son as branches on the vine, that, rooted firmly in Your love, we may testify before the whole world to Your great power working everywhere through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

In Christ’s Love,
Pastor Dell & Judy Schomburg
