LWBNaz Church Family,
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the love, kindness, and generosity you showed during the surprise 3-in-1 celebration recognizing my three-year anniversary as your pastor, my birthday, and my graduation with a Doctor of Ministry degree.
My family and I are so grateful for the privilege of serving Jesus alongside you.
For those who have asked, my dissertation focused on the journey of our three campus congregations learning to notice and respond to the movements and invitations of God together.
Along the way, we discovered that communal discernment begins with trusting God and one another, continues through listening for God's voice together, leads to unity in Christ, and culminates in obedient action.
By God's grace, He transformed us from three neighboring congregations that occasionally interacted into a 3-in-1 campus united in mission while celebrating the unique gifts, languages, and cultures of each congregation.
What makes this accomplishment especially meaningful is that it is not simply my story—it is our story. This dissertation could not have been written without your willingness to trust, listen, unite, and obey as God led us forward together.
Thank you for being part of this journey. To God be the glory for all He has done, all He is doing, and all He will continue to do among us.
Glory to God! ¡Gloria a Dios! Glwa pou Bondye!
Pastor Donna (aka Dr. D / Dr. Donna)
