Dear Sisters and Brothers at the Church of our Saviour,

I am writing this letter to encourage you to celebrate and share your gifts, both your financial gifts in the current capital funds drive and your baptismal gifts in total ministry. Your support in "Building on History" at the Church of Our Saviour will provide the framework in which your parish can continue to grow. Your new building will make a strong statement about our church's faith and commitment to spread the Good News of the Gospel.

The pioneering spirit of the founding church members in Little Falls is reflected in your vision and courage in this project. Your historic sanctuary is an "outward and visible" sign of the faith of those early settlers. Now you have an opportunity to build a new sign of your faith in the future of God's work among us.

This addition will not only make your historic sanctuary more comfortable for yourselves and more welcoming for others, but will provide opportunities for community outreach and more effective evangelism.

I give thanks for the work of the Spirit evident among you, and I trust that with your new building you will discover new ways to make Christ's love known and to welcome all who seek God.

Faithfully, in Christ
+James L. Jelinek
