Fresh Springs Family,
I want to take a moment to simply say THANK YOU!
For the past 4 years, we have watched God take our vision and turn it into a church family. You have prayed, served, given, invited, worshiped, encouraged, sacrificed, and believed in what God is building through Fresh Springs. And because of your faithfulness and generosity, we have reached another beautiful milestone:
I now have the privilege of serving Fresh Springs as your full-time Pastor.
This is more than a change in my schedule or employment. It is an opportunity to give even more of myself to caring for you, strengthening our church, developing leaders, reaching our community, making disciples, and preparing Fresh Springs for everything God has placed before us.
But I need you to hear my heart: You helped make this possible!
Every prayer mattered.
Every offering mattered.
Every Sunday you showed up mattered.
Every time you served mattered.
Every person you invited mattered.
Every time you chose to keep believing in this church mattered.
By the grace of God, we did this together!
And this next chapter is not simply about your Pastor becoming full-time. It is about Fresh Springs moving forward. There are still people we have not reached, families we have not met, leaders we have not developed, ministries we have not built, and prayers we have not yet seen God answer. I truly believe some of our greatest days are still ahead of us.
But we will need each other. So I am simply asking you to:
Keep walking with us.
Keep praying.
Keep giving faithfully.
Keep serving.
Keep inviting.
Keep growing.
Keep showing up.
And keep believing that God will use this church to transform lives.
Finally, I want you to know that I am making a commitment to you as well. I will continue praying for you, studying and preaching God's Word faithfully, caring for our church family, developing our leaders, strengthening this ministry, and doing everything I can to steward this opportunity with wisdom, integrity, and excellence.
Fresh Springs, thank you for trusting me. Thank you for believing in this ministry. And thank you for allowing me the privilege of being your Pastor.
I love you deeply, and I am incredibly grateful that God has allowed us to build this church together.
By His grace, we have come a long way. And we're just getting started.
