Almighty God, you raised Jesus from the

last, and lost in his day. Help us follow his

A Huge Thank You from Cihan!
I’m so sorry that I did not get a chance to
write you earlier. I wanted to thank you so
much for arranging the gathering for me last
Sunday. It was so nice of you and everybody
to think about it. I am so blessed to have all of
you in my life. It was great to see everybody
over there and to talk to them after a long while. You guys
(and Beste) are the nicest people that I have ever met.
Thank you for being so great.
God Bless.
Cihan

to be like us. They will reign over the fish in the sea, the
birds in the sky, the livestock, all the wild animals on the
earth, and the small animals that scurry along the
