A message FROM Donna Moore

Wow! Two weeks and we pulled it off! God gave us a task and we did it. Together. Our entire church. What a joy it has been to watch everyone pull together for the same cause.

Please know my heart when I give my thanks for your willingness to participate in our Holy Week Walk-through. Without you, it would never have come to fruition. In our busy world, giving your time and energy truly made a meaningful impact, and helped create a memorable experience for everyone involved.

I am grateful for your dedication to God and to Lone Oak Baptist Church. Thank you again for your support and for helping bring Holy Week to life.

Thank you to everyone who helped in any way! AND A SUPER BIG THANK YOU TO LINDA ELLERY! SHE IS ALWAYS MORE THAN WILLING TO HELP AND DOES A GREAT JOB!
