i love you guys

i guess everyone is feeling a little sentimental right now. i just had to say that i really love you guys! it's so much fun to get to hang out with all of you every week and to be able to be a part of all of your lives!! when sandy and tony announced that they were having a baby i didn't just feel like "someone in my small group is having a baby," i felt like some of my really good friends are having a baby! i just feel so excited to be a part of these things! chad and i got to share my pregnancy with all of you and our little guy loves you all now, we got to see amber and stephen get married last april and this year we will get to see a new little pitney baby. it just feels like THIS is the church. i love to hear rich speak, but i get to live the church with all of you. i am really looking forward to seeing what this new year will bring in all of our lives. the Lord is doing some great things that i think are made even greater by the community he gives us to share in them. i appreciate all of you.

Thanks for this post Mary. You made me cry.

But honestly, it is so true. You guys mean so much to me. And Stephen. We pray for each one of you and its fun to watch God make himself real through each of you and your love for us. I love you Mary.

Happy New Year!

I must say that we probably have the best small group ever...at least for Tony and I. It's pretty funny looking back at how terrified we were to come those first couple of times. Thanks to all of you for making us feel so safe.
