General Welcome

Two cards that are very similar in their content, but customized based on the time of year or need for two different types of visitors.  Either card, our first time visitors know they are welcome.



As you walked in, we hope you found
A gentle spirit that seemed to abound

This church is only a place
Without His Spirit and His Grace

We welcome you with arms open wide
To join our family, always by your side

We promise to lift you in times of need
To be a friend and your soul to feed

May the Shepherd lead you to wherever He may
And may you hear His voice calling you this way.

Easter Welcome

A card that was sent to those who attended church for the first time as a visitor on Easter Sunday.  What a better time to make sure each visitor feels loved and welcome at our church home.
We were blessed to welcome you on Easter Sunday
To worship with us, letting God have His way

We serve a risen Savior, tis true
Not forgetting all that He went through

For me, for you, He suffered and died
Awaiting your call with arms open wide

Don’t hesitate, to return to this place
Feel His wonder, feel His grace

Jesus will heal each broken heart
Set you free, and be set apart

We are your family, when you choose us as a home
Never without a friend, never to be alone

We will love, pray and be a constant friend
From this Easter Sunday and until the very end

Easter Bunny


If I were the Easter bunny this is what I would do
Hop, hop, hop into your arms and give some love to you

I would snuggle so closely and keep you close to my heart
So that the love would last forever, even when we are apart
Happy Easter

Blank Easter Card

This is a photo taken by my friend Amy Lane and made into a blank card to write personal note of encouragement during this spring season.  You can do the same with your photos.
Take a picture, create a design, and then I will write the poem to go with it.
Happy Spring and Easter to All!

Easter Lilly



Easter Lilly, so lovely and meek
Reminding me of the one I seek

So pure and beautiful to those that sees
Inside the blossom that transforms me

With His touch all things are made
The Easter Lilly, shall never fade

The journey of this one tiny seed
Changes our heart and meets our need

Don’t forget His power, His grace, for us He created really
To give us a glimpse of his beauty when He made the Easter Lilly
Pamela Lidik

Easter Blessing



Inside this vessel, make me see
A glimpse of Easter and what it should mean to me

It’s easy to forget the price you paid
Your death on the cross, your life you laid

The world forgets what you have done
And focuses on the Easter egg fun

Oh Lord my heart longs for your amazing grace
To show the world, for them to see your face

Forgive us Father for they know not what they do
As troubled times come, they forget to call on you

Please make us aware of how we need you so
Fill our hearts so that you may grow

Grow inside the heart of mine
Until its you Jesus, that the world may find

Taking Flight


As I walk today and my eyes glance above
I think of you..somewhere traveling way above

How amazing it must be to see the world so small
To understand the grandness and wonder of it all

You have altered the direction of the lives you have touched
Steered their course, guided their way, given up much

You have shown in your strengths and your weaknesses too
That God in His mercy will always see us through

May you continue to find splendor in your journey along the way
And to be the pattern that helps guide others each day

You are truly a man, whose chosen to live right
So, continue in faith…and enjoy your flight!

Grandma


I’m reminded of a journey that surely seems like yesterday
When you held my hand to guide me the way.
I’m sure you were afraid of the unknown
But held to God’s promises His paths daily shown.
You taught me love, mercy and kindness too
To be faithful in all God would call me to do.
Grandma, I only pray that God would allow me to be
The kind of Grandma you have always been to me.

Valentine's Day Card - Note to a Friend


How sweet to know that on this day,
I’m sending some love across the way

My mind recalls the times we shared
The laughs, the tears, you always cared

I know I’m not there, but I still think of you
Wishing the very best..this entire day through.

Valentine's Day Card - Tears From Momma


As your momma looks down from above
I know her heart is full of love

She sees your tears and knows your pain
And sends her love in the seasons rain

The drops of dew are sent from heaven so bright
As she pours her love with all her might

As you feel the droplets upon your face
Look up and smile and feel her grace

She is so happy to see the love you have found
And feels your joy from all around

She is gone and you miss her with all your heart
Life is not the same since you are apart

Let every season bring you joy, peace from above
And lavish in the droplets she sends in love.

Valentine's Day Card



Once in awhile God sends a blessing that truly touches your heart
You are that blessing to me, even when we are apart

As each day passes, I thank the Lord above
For the wonderful Husband He has sent in love

Just in case I forget to say how special you are
How you touched my life and made it better by far

Happy Valentine’s Day and know what a blessing it is to me
For us to have each other forever to be!

May God Bless you in each and every way
May you feel His presence and strength today.
