I searched for a card and found this one of the sea shore which I thought was appropriate. The artists builds up pictures from bits of magazines to forma finished article .It reminds me of how we are a composite of our experiences and relationships, and that makes you part of my own picture. It was my first time away from home. When I arrived in Stafford back in 1978 I was made so welcome at Rising Brook and I found a new home and church family I have now been part of for over 40 years. Starting my first full time job was a daunting prospect, but finding myself working for you during that time brought a most welcome and comforting anchor and connection between church family and everyday work life. Thank you for your help and encouragement and for being a valued part of my own picture.
