"Are You Feeling Thirsty?"

By Pastor Don Nelson

All day long I face the barren waste
Without a taste of water
Cool water
Old Dan and I
Our throats slate dry
Our spirits cry for water
Cool clear water [original “Cool Water” lyrics by Bob Nolan; rewritten by Joni Mitchell]

~Thank You~
Dear Friends,
Thank you for the many cards and the beautiful basket of flowers sent to us in remembrance of our mother,
Barbara Anderson. Beverly Evangelical Covenant Church meant a lot to both of our parents and the friendships made there that sustained them all their lives meant even more. Thank you so much!
Blessings,
Mel and Nancy Heckman, Robert Anderson

We are grateful that God has given us friends to share in our time of sorrow. We thank you for your prayers and words of consolation during Harry’s suffering and passing. We also thank the Choir and Deacon Board for the lovely flowers given in his memory. May God bless you for your comforting concerns and support.
Sincerely, The Burton family
