Some of you have contacted the office regarding emails you thought were from me. The email subject has "bless you" in it. If this email is from rtrevdanielgpg@gmail.com or dgutierrez.diopa@gmail.com please delete it as both are spam. (I offer my blessings regardless.)

This presents opportunity for all of us. And, for some, a challenge to figure out how you speak and relate to new audiences. How to get out and evangelize to your new neighbors. The Evangelism Committee, led by Canon Wamsley, is helping churches reimagine and engage our roles in proclaiming the Gospel. Please be in touch with him, swamsley@diopa.org, if you are interested or looking for assistance.
And, bless you, for real, every day.
