My Debt of Gratitude for All Those Who Have Invested In Me

“I am carried on the shoulders of those
who cannot see the landscape I describe. 
 I owe them far more than my weight.” 
~Judith DuPree

I found the above quote by Judith DuPree in a book by Betty Barnett: Friend Raising - Building a Missionary Support Team That Lasts. It vividly describes the people God has brought into our lives that have carried us through these last thirty years of ministry. I shared this quote on Sunday, May 20 as the Grace Church family gathered to celebrate our eighteen years of service among them. We both were overwhelmed with words of gratitude, affirmation, and love. May God continue to pour out His abundant grace upon you, Grace Church, as you fulfill His mission of making disciples of Jesus.
