A Personal Note . . .

Clark . . .

"Christianity and church have been an

adventure for me. My parents took me

to church when I was growing up and I even

joined the church after going through

membership classes. But there was a

problem. I only knew about God intellectually

and I had no personal connection with him

through Jesus. After years of poor choices,

I finally came to understand my need for

forgiveness when I was a law student.

Because of what Jesus did on the cross,

God forgave me when I reached out to him.

My life changed forever. I practiced law for

over 20 years and when I had a chance to

go to seminary, I did. Starting The Church At

Westerly and watching people's lives change

has been the most wonderful experience of

my life. The journey continues . . . ."

For all of you who know us and pray for us,

I say, "Thank You!" You mean so much to us.

My parents took me to church also. As I learned

more about Jesus I wanted to love Him. Because

I was the youngest of three sisters, I knew the

others had already made a personal choice

to accept Jesus into their hearts. I knew also

that as adults, my parents had chosen to

follow Jesus. At home and at church, I was

learning a lot about what it means to be a

Christian. I understood that there were two

places people could go when they die:

Heaven or hell. That knowledge was what God

used in my life to lead me to ask Jesus into my

heart. I wanted to go to Heaven. As I knelt

down with my parents in my home,

I put my faith in God and He forgave me forever.

Jesus became my Lord and Savior. I knew for sure

that when I die I will be in Heaven with Him. I knew

that He loved me and forgave me. This is the offer

of forgiveness that Jesus makes to everyone who

comes to Him in faith and belief. Click Here to find
