Thank You Pastor Tess and everyone from Immanuel Lutheran Church. You made a huge difference in our lives. We (Eric, Grace, and I) are members of this church. Eric and I were married and our daughter Grace was baptized at Immanuel Lutheran Church. Everyone from this church has always made us feel welcome and like we are family. Pastor Tess you are truly the greatest person Eric and I know. You look past our sins and love us anyway. Words can not describe your generosity and how much this is filtered through the members of this church. Since our move to Plattsmouth, NE we have joined a new church but no church will every feel like â??HOMEâ?� until we stop in and see all your smiling faces. I canâ??t say THANK-YOU enough and that we truly love and miss all of you. Also, baby number 2 is on the way. She will be arriving in August! Her name is still pending. With all your many prayers we have been blessed with 2 beautiful presents from God.

Hi Tess, will you please add me to your prayer list. One of these Saturdays I will try to get down for church service. Love, Karen

Dear friends. Please pray for our nine-year-old ministry (started in 2001) -- www.tjlit.org (Testifying Jesusâ?? Love in Truth). In Toronto, we make free resumes, teach free English weekly, and do free translations/interpretations in 17 languages to any church or organization that asks us to (worldwide.) We also give out 3000 tracts each week, and we get people who are abused, have mental illness and other problems into churches and places where they can receive help, as well as getting kids into free dentists. We love the Lord, and love the ministry he has blessed us with. We are deeply committed to fighting racism and poverty. Please send us your prayer requests (Email: reachus@tjlit.org), and pass our site to friends, missionaries and family, as there are many who are lonely; and, we are thrilled when Christians connect. As the world becomes more hostile towards Christians; it is essential that we connect. At the moment we are trying to set up a pen pal club so people from all over can write to others and develop friendships. Nobody should be lonely. If you read this and are lonely, please contact us and we will do our best to get you into a good church wherever you are in the world. We get over 1000 visits a day in 105 (our counter is broken), which means somebody will be praying for you. Please also click on and read the Bible verse of the day, and say a prayer for us. Also, please send us words of encouragement. Is there anyway we can help you? Please contact us â?? especially if you are lonely. God bless you. To our American friends: Please read article 51 on our site â??Things I love about America.â?� PS. Sorry to the person whose guestbook we have just signed. If we have taken up a lot of space and not commented, again, sorry. The fact that we have left a message is proof, in our opinion, that you are good. God bless you. Ian.
