Dear friends,

As we celebrate Father's Day, I wanted to share with you the profound influence my father had on my life. His unwavering dedication to his faith and his commitment to spreading the message of Christ left an indelible mark on me. Through his guidance and example, I learned the importance of being a witness for God, even when it meant stepping out of my comfort zone. My dad's love for the Lord and his willingness to share that love with others inspired me to do the same. Today, I honor him and his memory, grateful for the Christian models he and my mom were to me. Their faith continues to guide my path, reminding me to seek not my will, but His.

With gratitude,

John
