Dear Pastor Jeff:
You have no idea how many times I've wanted to just give you a hug and say "thank you" after church. It was during the "Rams" year that I first came to Family Church. Immediately, I knew that's where I belonged. I had lost everything and separated from my husband. Between joining with you and the church, and working at Joyce Meyer's during that time, it really helped me get back on my feet. Shortly after the superbowl, I moved to Tulsa for four years because I believed God was restoring my marriage. It ended up being worse than before, although I gave birth to my son during that time on 2/2/2002 at 22:22. He's a miracle child and was worth what I had to endure in Tulsa. I attended two great churches there (Victory Christian Center, and then Grace Fellowship); however, I never felt the connection that I do at Family Church. I truly love it here and missed it when I was gone. Your love for your congregation comes through in your prayers and I thank you for truly wanting us to become all God created us to be!!! My son and I have been back for two years now. The entire time, I've been in a custody battle, which finally ended on 12/28/05. It's been extremely hard starting all over again with no child support, but thankfully my family and friends are here. Your constant words of encouragement has helped me more than you'll ever know. Every week you bring exactly what I need to hear and are continuing to walk me through my restoration process. . . There is no better place for me and especially my four-year-old son to be. I thank God so much for you, your family and your ministry. I hope your birthday is happy and blessed beyond measure, and may you truly experience God's fullness in this jubilee year and many more!!! Thank you again for everything!!!
We love you!!!
