Thank You Card
Dear St. David’s UCC,
I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for showing me that there is a lot of good in the world. Even though something bad has happened to me, I have been blessed with all the goodness done for me. Your financial help came at a time when I was greatly in need.
I will truly pay forward what you have done for me. Please continue to pray for me as I continue on my long journey to recovery.”
Love,
Michael Pfaff
