Thanks to An Army of Ants

I haven't written thank you notes yet for anything that happened in the past few weeks but I feel like I have to say a big thank you here. I was talking to a family member and she was amazed at how our church family has helped us through so many life changing events lately. From meals, visits, gifts, prayers and everything in between, you have shown up! This family member said that after the wedding was over and she started putting things away, she looked up and saw what appeared like an army of ants moving. There were people moving tables and chairs and packing boxes and loading trucks. But that was only one night. You have overwhelmed us with ALL of the times you've shown up. When Abigail was born, you were there. During the Christmas season, when Ray was gone to be with his dad and family, you were there. When Ray's dad died on Christmas Day, you were there. For the week of Rachel's wedding, you were there. You did not leave us in our time of need that week and placed before many eyes an excellent example of how the body of Christ works. You sent gifts, helped decorate the wedding venue, brought countless meals, attended the funeral (and even babysat there), served in many ways at the wedding, cleaned up after the wedding, and prayed diligently. And then you asked how you could help! THANK YOU!
