Top of the morning and best wishes from Pilgrim Presbyterian Church, now in its 126th year of ministry in Vinita, Oklahoma and the surrounding area.
126 years! That is a long time to have informed and inspired generation after generation. Many have written to tell me how influential Pilgrim Church has been in their lives. The latest such note came from a lady who wrote "the church has a special place in my heart and always will." She now lives half a continent away from Vinita.
I have asked myself what is the most striking thing about this congregation which is held with great affection by so many. I have concluded that is a strand of love which has been woven into its life and work, decade after decade, generation after generation.
The strand of love that is present in the Church's mission and outreach programs...
The strand of love that blesses the tie that binds us to Christ and to one another...
The strand of love that loudly affirms that we all need one another!
Peace...fond regards,
Richard
