As this year’s Chairman, I am quite pleased with the projects that have been brought forth in Christ’s and work needing to be done through us His Church. We are here to do this work. I want all to know that the talent and gifts given to us are great, let us use them to benefit those who greatly need us.
Respectfully submitted,
