This
journey started with a simple phone call. It went like this: “Dad do you want
me to come out to help you?” Silence. “Yes” “When?” “Tomorrow.”. This journey
started with that moment when you realize someone you love might need more help
than they are able to express, the realization that your life is about to
change and as always, a tiny glimpse of my fathers’ wonderful sense of humor.
We have
so many things to be grateful for. So many blessings. I am so blessed to be able to live in the
moment, recognize the love in my life on a daily basis and share the joy of
each moment with each of you.
Each
and every one of you is a part of this story of love and family.
This
place that welcomes everyone with open arms, warm smiles. UCC La Jolla is
sanctuary, the house that love built, home.
Each in
your own way making hardship bearable, stewardship a common goal and fun
contagious.
Every
hug, every kind word, every thoughtful and kind gesture, every second spent in
conversation (you all know I can talk! :-) ), every second you spent listening,
encouraging, counseling and teaching.
Someone
said once that people don’t always remember what you say but they do remember
how you make them feel. I hope it is true. I hope I remember this feeling
always.
So, I
thought I would hold the mirror up and let you all see just a few of the
moments that define my relationship with this church and the sweet, sweet
spirit of the people that also call it home.
Blessings
and joy!
Bronwyn~
