Today one chapter closes and another begins. I never imagined that starting this church six years ago would have impacted my life in the way that it has. I have grown in more ways than I can even count. Our heart in starting Restoration Church was simple…to create an atmosphere where the Holy Spirit could move freely. I believe we did just that. It was never about us. It was all about HIM. We’ve seen lives changed, people healed, set free and delivered. With that being said Restoration Church, I want you to know that you ministered to me more than I ever did you. You taught me to push beyond my limits. You taught me to stand steadfast when things looked impossible. My faith grew, my relationship with God grew and my intensity in worship went to another level. For that, I am forever grateful. Now as we move on to our next assignment in Atlanta, I take everything I’ve learned from you with me. Restoration Church, it has truly been an honor and a privilege to pastor each and every one of you. Thank you for all of your love and support throughout the years. Thank you for standing with us when others didn't. Thank you for equiping me for my next season. I pray God’s richest blessings on all of you in your next season as well. I will leave you with this one last thing and echo the words of my husband...If you've learned nothing else, always remember that "God is not mad at you; He is madly in love with you." Your best is yet to come!
