[Lynn Ronkainen]

Seems like many people come into a (new) church love-starved and find love but then never make the how-can-I-pass-it-on connection. I'm sad for this situation Molly. I know that it hurts. We love you here, it's just not easy to be there for you in person. 
Love and hugs from TX
Lynn
