as I worked on the MPCWorshipArts note:
God's faithfulness to His church and
to each of His children on a personal level
will remain constant.
There are changes ahead for our Madison Park family.
But, God has prepared things for us to do.
And, undiscovered blessings from Him are awaiting us,
as we continue to seek and to serve Him.
He will be faithful to continue what He has begun!
Be encouraged! God is at work!!
