Happy Birthday Pastor M-E-L!!

This is a shout out to one of the two greatest leaders in the world.

It is her B-Day tomorrow and since we can't all sing to her over the internet (...easily that is), she will have to settle for us saying nice things about her online (...though you can always sing to her on location...hmmm...maybe there could be a prize for the craziest demonstration of "Happy Birthday" in front of P. Mel?)

We thank you for being you. We thank you for putting us before yourself. We thank you for taking the time to see we are each reaching our full potential for Christ. We love you and pray that God's grace, anointing and favor will increase exponentially.

Oh...and that you will recieve an overflowing abundance of "Sour Patch Candies", "Gummie Worms", and chocolate (:hint)

Thanks Pastor Mel for making it a TEAM. You are a great captain and coach. Thanks to God for the day of your birth and for the opportunity to know you and worship with you.

Also - thanks to you for putting up with all the electric guitar NOISE. In this arena, no worship leader could ever rival you. Happy Birthday!! Be Abundantly Blessed!
