    A Note of Blessing..... a special email

The following email was received by Pastor Tim after a man found our church website. The words to the song that he was hunting were in an article written by Tim on "Renewal" in the January-February Menno-Notes.

Pastor,

Thank you for this reminder. I was searching the web for the words of Keith Green’s song, and was so pleased to find them on your web site. You don’t know how they ministered to me, again, and softened up my old hard heart.

Pastor, your words have poured oil on an old heart all the way out in Las Vegas, NV. Keep preaching, sir, you are ministering miles away.

God bless, Dave Grant
