Chris,
I wanted to share a few thoughts of encouragement and gratitude for you as you celebrate turning the big 5-0.
You’ve had an important, Godly influence on Ben, and in turn, our family since he began working at Hartco back in 2002.Throughout the years, you have modeled servant leadership, put obedience to God first, generously gave to others, discipled Ben (and many others) on identifying and living as a child of God and so much more. I have witnessed tremendous spiritual growth in Ben through your nurturing and building into him.
Through the TNF Ministry, Ethan, too has been blessed with the opportunity to learn what it means to be a man of God. Having seen the fruits of this ministry in both Ben and Ethan, I look forward to seeing it play out in Garret’s life too.
I’m grateful to you as well for allowing me to make the gift baskets for Hartco employees. It means a great deal to me that you trust my creativity and handiwork to put a gift together which gives me the opportunity to earn a small income. Knowing that I have your blessing in advance on “future orders” is very encouraging and generous of you.
My hope for you on your birthday is that you enjoy the blessings of good friendships, the love of your family, the appreciation of those you disciple, and the treasure of being a precious son of our Heavenly Dad. It is a joy to be able to celebrate YOU, Chris!
Have a wonderful birthday!
Carolyn
