U Matters
Greetings from Greg Gung Gung. Our daughter Lindsey gave birth to a baby boy, Carter James Miller, on 1 January.
Baby, mother, and father are doing great. The grandfather is beside himself with joy and gratitude to God. Holly and I are thrilled to be grandparents and we ask for your prayers for this precious baby.
8 January is Epiphany Sunday and Pastor Matthew will be focusing on the opportunity we have to dedicate 2017 to our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
Gratefully, Pastor 3G
