This morning, I want to extend my great gratitude to the people of First Presbyterian Church of Saline. I had the joy and privilege of sojourning with them for the last 6 months and leading their services alongside them. Soon their new pastor will be arriving. The people in this community have become great friends.
Yesterday was my last day with them in this capacity. We also had a church picnic, and they were kind enough to allow me to take one big selfie. 
Among other sweet moments, I received a Mr. Rogers button that says, “We are all neighbors” and knowing how much I love where I live, they commissioned a ceramic piece of art that includes both the Lower and Upper Peninsulas of Michigan.
Grateful!
Smuggling Grace 
Renee,
I have been so happy that you have been with us the last six months. Thank you! And I always enjoy reading you blog. My very favorite is the one you wrote on July 4. I have saved it and read it once in a while as a reminder. Sending love, hugs, and wishes for much peace and joy for you.
