Family In Christ

Pastor Serrenil, his wife Linette, and his daughters Clarissa, Gigi, and Sabrina are leaving back to California on Tuesday. Today was their last day in our church, at least for now. I don't know if they will come back. I hope so. This family has done so much for me and they don't even know it. For YEARS I have felt separated from this church, not from God, from this church. And somehow, the pastor helped close that gap. And he made me realize how much I have to work on without talking down to me or making me feel scolded. God put him and his family in my life for a reason. Before leaving I was able to say goodbye to him, and then I thanked his wife. Linette is basically the person I want to be when I get older. She gave me some solid advice and told me she had faith in me and my future. She barely knows me, but she legitimately believes in me. She then gave me her number and told me to call her whenever I needed someone to talk to. Seriously. This theatre loving Sister has brought new hope to my life, and I am forever grateful.
