In 2007 we welcomed author Greg Vaughn to our church.  Greg is the author of the book Letters From Dad and creator of the ministry of the same name.  Back in the fall of 2007, a number of our men chose to be a part of our "Letters From Dad" group.  We would like to offer this again in the fall.  Brian Pfile will be leading our LFD group.  It's only four meetings, one a month for four months.

 

THE BIG QUESTION?

If God were to take you home today... what would your wife and children hold in their hands tomorrow that would let them know that they were the treasures of your life?

 

THE RIGHT ANSWER... Letters from Dad

You are invited on a journey... a journey to leave a legacy of Faith, Hope and Love through the lost art of letter writing.

 

Your journey begins as you join a Legacy Group. Here you will work through the Letters from Dad curriculum where you will learn to write 5 specific types of letters. You will learn what it means to give THE BLESSING to your wife, children and grandchildren. In addition you will:

  • Learn to write the things you have always wanted to say but just didn't know how.

  • Leave treasured letters of love that will be read long after you are gone.

  • Learn to speak and write these Blessings to your family.
    Build deep and lasting relationships with other men in your
    Legacy Group.

  • Store, in letter form, the only 3 things that remain:
    Faith, Hope and Love.

  • Finally, you will deliver your letters in our personally engraved, mahogany Treasure Boxes (purchased separately). Here the treasured letters you leave will be stored for your children and your children's children.

Our Heavenly father left us a book of love letters called the Bible. We invite you to leave your book of love letters called... Letters from Dad.

 

There is a cost of $95 for this curriculum which includes everything you need to get started.  The mahogany Treasure Box is an extra, additional cost.
