Letter From
Mary Lou Kropp
2020 High Plains Emmaus
Community Lay Director
Hi High Plains Emmaus Community
I pray that this letter finds each of you well.
I want to thank Central Baptist Church in Clovis, NM for allowing us to have our September community gathering there. We had nice group of people attend. We were blessed to have Jason Lindsey give us an awesome 4th day. He had prefect words for us, reminding me God is in control. He is such a blessing to our community, thank you Jason for giving us this 4th day talk. I know those of you who were unable to join us physically were there through prayer and I thank you for those and the continued prayers.
The 2021 walks are WW54, lay director Jill Denton and spiritual director Larry Mitchell will be June 24-27, 2021, MW39 lay director Terry Leatherwood and spiritual director Wayne Kinman will be July 222-25, 2021, and WW55 lay director Kathi Shaw, and spiritual director Suzanne Brockmeier will be September 23-26, 2021. The lay directors that have been chosen for 2021 will be moved to 2022.
We will be having our board elections in November. The names on the ballot will be announced at the October gathering. I would love to tell you all right now who is on the ballot but there are members who are praying as I write this for the guidance to accept the nomination or to graciously turn it down. My prayer is for all of us to follow God’s guidance in all we do.
As our churches reopen, and as we begin to meet again, we need to still remember to give to them. Just as our business do, HPEC and our churches are still in need of finances unfortunately this does not go away with a pandemic or quarantine. You can give online through PayPal there is a link on our website.
We will be having our October gathering at Central Baptist in Clovis, NM. The board meeting will be at 6:00 pm MDT, we will not be having Sponsors until a later date in 2021, and community gathering 7:00 pm MDT. We will NOT be having a potluck fellowship. I look forward to seeing you there.
DeColores,
Mary Lou Kropp
