We can’t follow in Christ’s footsteps alone. We need people in our life who

can help us #adult in faith. People who can guide our steps and help you

grow in faith. May you find people within these pews, who can be like Paul

for you, who can thank God for you, remind you of your calling, and help

you walk in faith

May you find the folks who can see hope in you on your worst days, 

and who take pride and find joy in you when you are flourishing in your

faith.

And if you struggle in that search. If you find it hard to connect, or

don’t even know where to begin. May we the church follow through in our

calling, to nurture and support you in your faith walk by helping to form

and nurture those relationships. May we empower everyone from birth to

beyond, to mentor others in Christ, while being mentored themselves until

together, we grow into fully grown #adult Christians. Amen.
