So many times people come to me and thank me for what is happening at 5 Point.  Truth be known, I don't deserve the credit, the staff and volunteers do.  Here is an awesome example.  I received this letter in the mail Friday.  I didn't minister to Susie as the ladies in our church did.  They loved on Susie unconditionally.  So, as the pastor I want to say THANK YOU to those ladies who saw past the ugly of Susie and saw the good.  And let's be honest, we all have an ugly side.  A side we don't want people to know about and we all want to be loved unconditionally.  I think this letter will help explain.


Dear Pastor Dean,
Enclosed is a memorial gift to 5 Point Fellowship in Memory of my sister Susie.  THANK YOU – and the Body of Believers that make up your fellowship for Being Christ to Susie.  Through Susie’s many struggles in life, she always seemed to be trying to hang on to God.  She knew that was important.  But I do not believe she experienced the truth too often that God was hanging on to her!  That is, until she found the love and acceptance at 5 Point that showed her the reality that God had redeemed her and made her his own.  May God richly bless your faithfulness in proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ to ALL people.
In Him 

This letter describes the way church should love.  These women describe Jesus.  Way to go ladies.

Here is the Business Time video from Sunday.  We've had a bunch of people ask about this, so here it is:
