Thank you, God, for the influence of young and old



















Thank you God,
for the people of the Elizabethtown Presbyterian Church. 
The people in this church, young and old, 
have influenced me in so many ways.
They have nurtured me through love and faithfulness 
in times that I needed it the most. 

The people in this church have strengthened my faith 
by providing a firm foundation for me to stand 
 when I feel the sand shifting beneath my feet. 

They have recognized spiritual gifts in me 
that I would have never known existed. 

Their wisdom, encouragement, and guidance 
has taught me how to use my gifts to share Your Word. 

For the people of the Elizabethtown Presbyterian Church,
I have always been and will continue to be 
eternally grateful!
In Christ's name, 
Amen!
