Thank you isnt enough. Zbrush For Windows. I could say thank you for the money, donations, time, showing up. I could say thank you for the fish supper. But, its simply not enough. Because it was more than all those things. It was more than a simple bake sale. Ocilla United Methodist Church, the United Methodist Men, and YOU showed a group of kids LOVE. You took a stand on Monday night against that negative rhetoric. Those kids will never be the same for witnessing your care, concern, and sharing. And for that, I am eternally grateful. See, I was one of those kids not too long ago. Well, lets be honest, its been a while. I remember adults who were not in my immediate family pouring into me teaching me in Sunday school, being my mentor through Confirmation, giving me keepsakes, telling me they were happy to see me, and letting me serve in my church. I know that what this congregation and visitors did on Monday night was more than show up. You showed out. You showed the love of Christ. Thank you for giving, sharing, praying, showing up, and being used by God. Thank you for allowing God to move in our church and impact our youth in a way that is changing lives daily. Thank you for being the heroes of our story and helping us share the gospel with our youngest generations. The bake sale is a legacy. Its not something that people outside of our church understand. I heard one visitor mutter incredulously, Did that cake just go for two HUNDRED something dollars I whispered back, It seems unusual, but this is tradition. I promise, these people are opening their wallets for more than just cake. I am excited to watch even more stories unfold as we, together, continue to show love and be heroes in our church and community. Hillary Heitzman.
