**Greetings in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ,**

It is with a heart full of gratitude that I greet you today. I stand amazed at the faithfulness of God and the generosity of this loving church family. Your unwavering support, prayers, and generous donations have been nothing short of a testament to God’s provision and grace. Each gift, whether it be in time, resources, or finances, has furthered the work of the ministry, allowing us to reach those in need, both within our congregation and beyond. I thank God for each of you, as you continue to be a beacon of hope and love in our community.

The apostle Paul reminds us in **2 Corinthians 9:7** that "God loves a cheerful giver." Your cheerful hearts and willingness to serve are evident in everything you do. I am deeply moved by the way this church family has come together to meet the needs of others, reflecting the very love of Christ. As your pastor, it fills my heart with joy to witness the unity and compassion that flow through our fellowship. Truly, this is the work of the Holy Spirit moving among us.

In these challenging times, your commitment to the vision and mission of Covenant Fellowship Community Church has not wavered. Through your generosity, we have been able to expand our outreach, support those struggling, and continue to proclaim the Good News of Jesus Christ. You are sowing seeds that will yield a harvest not only in this life but in eternity. May the Lord continue to bless and multiply all that you have given.

As we move forward together, I want to encourage you with a devotion from **Galatians 6:9**, which says, “Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” Sometimes, the work of the ministry can feel overwhelming or unnoticed, but remember that God sees every act of kindness, every prayer, and every sacrifice. Your labor in the Lord is not in vain, and the fruits of your faithful giving will bless many lives.

Let us continue to trust in the Lord, knowing that He who began a good work in us will bring it to completion. Be encouraged, knowing that as we honor Him with what we have, He will abundantly supply all that we need according to His riches in glory. I am excited to see the many ways God will use this church family to make an even greater impact in the days ahead.

Thank you once again for your faithfulness. I am honored to serve as your pastor, and I look forward to all that God has in store for us. Let’s remain steadfast in our mission to love God, serve others, and grow together in faith.

In Christ’s love,  
Dr. Lester Snell
