FUMC e-Letter: June 29- July 4
A LETTER FROM ALETA AND JIM
To Our Church Family
Thank you for your many prayers, cards, support and loaned equipment. The recent
Wednesday night visit by so many of you was a tremendous blessing. The VBS scrapbook
is a wonderful work of love. We would like to sincerely thank you for the kindness and assistance you have provided. The road ahead may be rough, but cancer cannot cripple the love, hope, faith and the spirit shown to us by our FUMC family. Aleta is looking forward to returning to work as soon as possible. God bless you.
