Greetings to my new church family!
I am so excited that July 1 is finally here and we can begin our ministry journey together. I am looking forward to meeting and getting to know each one of you. These are strange times to be going through an appointment change, so we may have to be creative as we look for ways to get to know one another. Your emails and zoom invitations have made me feel very welcome, and as I have said to many of you, I feel like I am coming home.
My husband Mike and I have six children, three boys and three girls. We moved to Texas in 1994, and bought a house on the Lake Dallas side of Hickory Creek, near Lake Lewisville. Coming from Minnesota, we were immediately attracted to this beautiful lake area. Also, the Minnesota North Stars had just moved to Texas to become the Dallas Stars, which made moving here all the better. At the time, our youngest child had just turned one. Our children are grown now. Three of them are married with children of their own. In fact, our fifth granddaughter is due in September! Our youngest, who took her first steps in Texas, graduated from A&M five years ago. (Two of our kids were Aggies and two were Longhorns so we had several interesting Thanksgiving dinners watching A&M play UT!) That being said, it seems like only yesterday when we were taking them to Eureka park, and I was admiring the beautiful church on the corner…and now, here I am! And I cannot tell you how happy I am to be here! I look forward to the important ministry we will do here together and the wonderful memories we will create.
I have heard from many of you about your concerns regarding opening the church. Let me assure you that your church leadership is working hard to find safe ways for us to gather as soon as possible. In the meantime, let us give thanks for this wonderful church that God has called us to serve together.
