It's truly astonishing that a mere 8 months ago I had never had the pleasure of meeting any of you. Now I can't imagine life without you.
When I came to England I prayed and prayed that I would find a home away from home.
God answered my prayers in an unimaginable way.
He blessed me with all of you. Ormskirk Christian Fellowship is what God's fellowship is meant to be.
From the very beginning every single one of you has been so very welcoming and loving. I want to thank you for that.
It has been such a blessing to be a part of your family over the past year. I have loved getting to know you and seeing you grow as a church.
Your zeal for God and for His people is overwhelmingly beautiful. You have inspired me. Know that I go home refreshed and energized to live each day for God, as I have seen many of you do.
I have grown closer to Him in the past year than I have over my entire life.
Thank you all. God has influenced my life through you more than you will ever fully know.
I am so thrilled where God is leading OCF. He has grand plans for this church and this town.
I offer up my prayers and encouragement to each of you.
I can now appreciate the difficulties of living in a largely non-Christian community and pray for your continued strength. This place and the people desperately need God.
I have confidence that you will be paramount in their hearing and receiving of the Gospel.
Please keep me updated on your endeavors and successes!
You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Until me meet again!
All my love and God's blessings
Ellise Williams
