Friends

Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. John 15:13

As some of you know, I have been interviewing for a new position with Merck back in Pennsylvania. I just officially found out today that I got the job. The prospect of starting a new position and moving back close to family and old friends is very exciting. Yet at the same time, we are already dreading the thought of being so far from the great friends we have made in New Mexico. I will miss New Mexico for a variety of reasons but the main reason by far is the friends we have made.

This week pray about your friends. Take some time to cherish the gifts they are.

Have a great week and a great fast.
Your brother,
Bob

  1. PRAISE GOD FOR ANSWERED PRAYERS!

    I am very happy for you and your family. Remember the friends in New Mexico may not be always on your mind but there will always be in your heart.

    Let me know if you need any assistance with the move - I am sure there will be several brother, including me, willing to help.

    Have a great and BLESSED day.

    Love-Your Brother in Christ,

    Michael
