A Note from Pastor Roger

Dear Church Family,
I hope you had an amazing Christmas this past Wednesday celebrating the birth of our Savior!
We are headed to Austin for a wedding. That’s right: Brady Patterson, our oldest son, is going to marry Emma Aldridge on Sunday afternoon, and we can’t wait to celebrate with them.

We covet your prayers as Brady and Emma come together to be husband and wife. As you can imagine, they are ready to go. As parents, Julee and I are really thankful for the young lady that the Lord has brought into Brady’s life. She loves Jesus, all things Baylor University, and comes from a great Christian family.
Thank you for your prayers for our family through the years. It’s a joy to see the way the Lord answers them!
