Thank you!

To the folks at Melrose United Church:

Thank you, thank you, thank you for the wonderful send-off on Sunday, September 8! It was an emotional day for us, but we appreciate it so much!

In my emotional haze, I neglected to open the gift while still at the church – though everyone heard it during the service! 🙂 So, here are some pictures of the beautiful clock presented to us on behalf of the congregation:

Thank you also for the photo album full of memories of our time at Melrose. We will always treasure our time together, and are grateful that you welcomed us as a part of your family.

Blessings,
Rev. Jen

As the numbers of refugees increase, the United Church has been asked to help. On September 5, 2013, the church launched an emergency appeal for donations that will be directed to our partners on the ground.
