The Sunday before Thanksgiving, we enjoyed a time of thanksgiving and celebration for what God has done for us! We had just ended our life group studies focusing on Pastor Terry’s messages on Ecclesiastes so we came together to celebrate that as well. It was a potluck dinner and the food was outstanding! After we ate we worshiped with song and then several people stood and said what they were thankful for. Pastor Terry and Debbie recognized several from the congregation for giving their time and talents in many areas of the church. There are so many at Harmony who just see a need and do it! Harmony truly is a family and I for one, am glad to be a member. 🙂
Just when Pastor Terry thought he was wrapping things up, we had a surprise for him. You see, October is Pastor Appreciation month and we had decided we would honor him on this particular Sunday. Laura, put together an awesome slide show featuring Pastor Terry through the years at Harmony and focusing on the theme “What a difference you’ve made in our lives”. We had also prepared notes that we showered him with that he was to later read at home.
The evening ended bathed in candlelight. The candlelight represented the lives Pastor Terry has touched within Harmony, throughout the community and even the world.
Pastor Terry, we love you!
