Cooperative Family of God:
As we begin a new year together, I want to thank you for your partnership in ministry. We all have grown in many ways. I am excited to see how God will continue to grow us in faith and life in 2026. Special thanks to your advocates:
- Sarah- Bethlehem
- Marge- Bethany
- Kathy- Trinity
- Kristi- Grace
- Marady- Emmanuel
- Janet “BJ”- Oak Lake
They have met with me monthly for over 2 years advocating for you, the church they love, and for me. I have so appreciated them, their commitment, and wisdom. Thank them if you get a chance. Their responsibility of being advocates has now ended as we are shifting to something new and more lasting.
“A Cooperative Church Council”. The Cooperative Church Council will meet for the first time on Thursday, January 29, 6:00 pm at Hope in Moose Lake.
As this new year begins, I am already thinking about lent which starts on Wednesday February 18. I am in need of 7 preachers and 2 worship leaders from each church to help shape our Lenten journey this year. If you are able to help let me know.
