A personal note from the Zimmermans,

Dear Grace Family,

We are so blessed to have a church family as amazing as you are! For the past couple of weeks, one or more of you have been showering us with inspiration, love and gifts! Our hearts are so full of love and thanks. We truly do LOVE YOU!

We know we can’t and aren’t expected to repay you but that just doesn’t seem right. That is what GRACE is all about. We just want to say THANK YOU and may God forever bless you!

T.J. and Jessica
