Dear Congregation,
Thank you so much for your support throughout the years. I've thoroughly enjoyed my time here at church and getting to know you all. I've loved worshipping with you all and serving you here at church, in the community, and whenever I would see any of you at the restaurant. :)
Thank you for being a strong community for me and joining me in my journey with God. I will miss this church. I am honored to receive this gracious scholarship, and am deeply appreciative of your support of my pursuit of higher education.
Thank you again, and God Bless
