A Note of Thanks
Aldersgate is truly blessed to have a number of members who
generously donated a lot of hard work and monetary gifts in the
past few weeks to get the parsonage ready for Pastor Rob and his
family. Sincere and heartfelt thanks to everyone involved!"
We are all eager for Pastor Robs arrival and are optimistic about the
future of Aldersgate and its ministries, including the prospect of
reaching people who will be moving into the 1,500+ homes along the
29N corridor (in the Brookhill, North Pointe, and Hollymead Town
Center housing developments). In the meantime, if every member gave
$20 more each week through Labor Day, we would make up the
shortfall. This is the level of commitment, on average, that it will take.
We appeal to your generosity and request further support from all
those who are able to give, whether it is contributing an additional onetime gift, increasing your weekly offering, and/or catching up on your
pledges. Finally, we ask that you please pray for our churchs financial
health.
Your brothers and sisters in Christ,
Bob Forrest, Lucas Ohlendorf, Kearby Chen, Susan Painter, Fay Painter,
Rebecca Wagner, Greg Brown
