Welcome and Support from the AMiA Family
Dear Friends and Co-workers in Christ ... Greetings!
It is with great joy that we received your letter and news on our Anglican Mission web-site of your formation as a new fellowship among the growing number of Anglican Mission churches in America. We send greetings to you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
It is with great anticipation that we watch and pray for your mission to Chattanooga and the surrounding area. We know that God is raising up a Church that will unashamedly proclaim His Name to all people, welcoming them into His Courts of praise and discipling them into the service of His Name.
We simply write to welcome you to the ranks of the Anglican Mission in America and to encourage you in your vitality and fervor for our Lord. May His blessing rest upon you and all your work in His Name in your city and its surrounding areas. We count you as partners in Mission as God is forming a People to bring His Presence into the cities of America -- to bring transformation and lasting renewal.
We at THE REZ (Resurrection Anglican Fellowship) will be praying for your work and that God will enlarge, bless and confirm your work with an extraordinary outpouring of His Presence in your midst, and through you, into the circles of influence that you touch. We know that He is able to do more than we can ask or even imagine, to bring Glory to Christ Jesus in His Church from generation to generation!
His blessings and Hand be upon you, today and always,
Fr. Phil+

Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Greetings in the name of our Risen Savior, Jesus Christ.
We welcome you as new workers in the harvest! It does our hearts good to stand side-by-side with you for the Kingdom.
If we could stand among you this morning, we would lay our hands upon you and pray the following:
May God richly bless the Anglican Fellowship of Chattanooga.
May He grant you the strength and courage to persevere.
May His Holy Spirit free you from the bonds of the past to a blessed future.
We pray that Jesus would meet you in every place you expect to see Him, and surprise you in the places where you may have a doubt.
May His goodness and grace be pressed down, shaken together, and overflowing into your laps!
Please never hesitate to contact us if we can ever be of service! And if you should ever find yourselves at 8000 feet in the middle of the Rockies, be sure to look us up!
With our deepest love and affection in Christ,
Rev. Gerry Grossman

Brothers and Sisters in the Lord Jesus Christ,
Welcome to the family! We rejoice with you and offer our heartfelt prayers for you as you undertake this great new journey in the Faith. Immanuel Church in Destin answered God’s call to step forth trusting that He would be with us every step of the way in 2000. If your journey is anything like ours, get ready for the most exciting and challenging ride of your life. The Lord will use every opportunity to cause you to grow in your faith. The Scripture promises that His “Word would be a lamp unto our feet”. Well, lamps don’t light up much of the path out in front of you. You just have to keep walking believing that as you reach the edge of the light, the Holy Spirit will reveal your next several steps. What you will discover is that as you step out – He will be right there with you every minute of every day.
We will be lifting you up in our regular prayers. May the Father bless you, the Holy Spirit strengthen you, and the Son give you His peace. The harvest is great and the laborers are few – but, praise the Lord, with your arrival the laborers’ ranks have grown. See you all at Winter Conference.
Yours in Christ,
Mike Hesse+

Dear Anglican Fellowship of Chattanooga,
Greetings and welcome to the AMiA in the name of our risen Savoir Jesus! I am excited to hear about your work in Chattanooga! I am praying that you will know blessings as you are faithful to Jesus and His Word and His mission -- that you will see many lives transformed by the Word of God and the Spirit of God and that Jesus will be lifted up and glorified in your midst.
I am thankful that you have chosen Steve as your pastor as you continue on this journey. I know Steve through the preaching course Bishop Thad Barnum and I taught in January -- Steve is a good and faithful man. In talking with Steve in June, the Lord's hand was so evident in this move.
I praise Jesus for your faithfulness. If there is anyway we can encourage you in this work, please let us know.
In His grip,
Ken
