I’m holding the statue of the Good Shepherd carrying a lost sheep, a gift a missioner had given to me years ago. “Thank you for being Jesus the good shepherd to me.” We did not know her background, her past or why she had been away from church. When she visited our center and spent time with our community, we welcomed her as we do all visitors, trusting Your goodness will touch her in Your own way. Thank you for giving us the space where others can continue to encounter You.
