God bless you; I just wanted to take the time to welcome you, as I have so graciously been welcomed here. I pray that God will move by his Spirit and we all will come together on one accord; in that the Holy Spirit will come in like a rushing mighty wind to bring change, in the lives of God's people. I know the plans that he have for you, and it's plans to give you and me, and us; a hope, and a future; declares the Lord; Amen.
