Members and Friends of Austin Mennonite Church I pray you are finding new light and sensitivity as you continue the journey with Jesus through the season of lent. I will be away from the office after today until next Tuesday for my scheduled absence. Next Sunday, Floyd Born, retired Mennonite minister, will be our guest preacher. Most recently, Floyd served as pastor of Peace Mennonite, Dallas (1989-94), and Zion Mennonite, Elbing, KS (1994-2003). For the past six years he has been a member of the WDC Ministerial Committee, serving as the Chair for the past four years. In the early 90's, Floyd and Bertha served as camp chefs at the Mid-TX Children's Camp, an experience they recall with great satisfaction. We welcome Floyd to our community with gratitude for his ministry to us. Please continue to hold close to your spirits those in our congregation who are suffering from illness and distress as well as those who will be traveling in the days ahead. May it go well with you. Sincerely, Garland Robertson ...always hold firmly to the thought that each one of us can do something to bring some portion of misery to an end
