WITH THANKS… GIVE THANKS IN ALL CIRCUMSTANCES; FOR THIS IS GOD’S WILL FOR YOU IN CHRIST JESUS.

1 THESSALONIANS 5:18

PAGE 3 FELLOWSHIP F INDINGS

Sometimes the plans of man are not God’s plans. When that happens it is comforting to

know He has provided us with the support of friends and family to make it through those

trials. Two surgeries instead of one and seventeen days in the hospital instead of a possi-

ble overnight stay; definitely brought out our Father’s grace and love through you His peo-

ple. Thanks, first and foremost, to the Great Physician for His healing mercies and for the

community of believers wherein He has placed me. It is with a grateful heart that I want to

thank all who prayed, sent cards (many came right at the time they were needed), visited,

brought in food and did my yardwork. Special thanks to Pastor Brian and Harris, Curt and

Candice, and Jason and Jen for their visits and all the other tasks they did to make my re-

turn home easier.

Steve Van Sant

Thank you to family and friends who prayed for me, sent cards and food, and for visits after

my surgery. A special thank you to Pastor Brian and Elder Scott Roose for their visit.

Also thanks for the cards and visits after Leland’s passing. Our loss is Heaven’s gain.

God is faithful and good all the time. Joan Vos

We would like to thank everyone for the thoughts and prayers, especially in the last 6

months. 2019 is definitely not what we expected but without the thoughts and prayers of

this community and church we would not have been able to make it through this smoothly.

Thank you so much to all of those that have given us cards, gift cards, money and food, it

was so thoughtful and very appreciated to help us get through the day to day in between

hospital stays. The doctors are content with where we are in treatment and just want to fol-

low up every 3 months to make sure we stay on top of it. Please keep us in your prayers

that this will never come back again. Thank you so much to everyone who gave us cards,

money, gift cards, food and other gifts for Everlea’s birth. Having he in this stage of life

was definitely a blessing but all of your kindness made it even better.

We praise God for where we are at in life, praise Him for the blessings of health, and praise

Him for such a generous church family. Thank you all!

Barry, Kelsie, Addison, Emmalea and Everlea Van Haaften

Thank you to everyone for your prayers, cards, phone calls, food and expressions of con-

cern. Thanks to elder Curt Vos for his visits and calls. May God bless each one of you!

Larry and Joan Pleima

Thank you to our church family for all the anniversary wishes, cards and applause when we

celebrated our 60th anniversary. We really appreciated it and it was special to have all of

our family worship with us. Most of all we thank the Lord for blessing us with 60 years to-

gether.
