Congratulations!

Jim and Hettie Pollock were in Houston to welcome their second grandchild born to Mark and Vicky Pollock. Four 1/2 year old sister Madeline is excited to now be a big sister. Charlotte Elise was born on August 4, 2020 and weighing

7 pounds 6 ounces. All are doing well.

Thank yous:

Oh, my goodness, Church Family. I was overwhelmed with joy when I received the beautiful hand painted pot of my favorite flower! I cried!! I have it placed where I see it every morning & it gets my special pampering. Thank you again for your many acts of love & kindness. Love, Pat Taylor Stay well. Jeremiah 29:11, Philippians 1:1-6

The LETU international students loved their snack bags. They were a welcome gift to new students this semester. There were even extras for some current students. The bags were all gone within a few hours!!! So, a big thank you to our EPC Kids for showing Christ's love in this way - to the stranger, the alien. Thanks, Carrie and your team! Suma Jayakar
