Reception for Pastor Matt Update

Dear Church Family,

As you all know, our Executive Pastor, Matt LaValliere, has taken a new position at a church in California. Matt, Tiffany and two of their daughters, Macie and Jocelyn, will be leaving for CA on Friday September 10th. This means their last weekend to worship with us in church will be September 4th and 5th.

Pastor Matt and Tiffany have done so much for Grace over the past 7 years that Matt has been on staff. Tiffany has been a wonderful Life Group leader and has overseen our Selah Cafe. Both have been involved in countless ministries and have worked tirelessly for the Lord. They have influenced many people for the Kingdom’s sake. They were also faithful church members from the very beginning, when Grace was first organized. They have a lot of emotional and relational capital here, and it will be hard for us all to say goodbye. They will be sorely missed by our church family and certainly by our church staff and elder team.

Would you join me in thanking them for their years of contribution to Grace Fellowship Church by dropping them off a card with some kind words of appreciation and affirmation? You can do this by either coming in person to a special drop in and out reception in their honor either at the Saturday night service on September 4th, or Sunday morning, September 5th in the Grace Room. You can come either before or after the church services. A monetary gift would be appreciated and encouraged, but they are not expected. We realize this is Labor Day weekend, and if you are unable to attend, you may drop a card off at the church office for them with their name on it. Or mail it to:

Grace Fellowship Church
Attention Matt LaValliere
325 Youngstown Warren Rd.
Niles, OH 44446

Thank you ahead of time for loving them and blessing them generously.


Sincerely,

Pastor Roy Mack
