Welcome!

Using the term welcome as a noun, dictionary.com defines the familiar word in the following manner:
a kindly greeting or reception, as to one whose arrival gives pleasure. This definition is very fitting as we celebrate the beginning of Andre Towner's ministry among us this Sunday. His arrival will indeed bring great pleasure as we expect that God will do great things in the days to come. Westwood is known for its welcoming spirit. Andre has already expressed to me his appreciation for the warm welcome you have offered him.

The apostle Paul encouraged the Philippian church to receive Epaphroditus as he once again came among them, writing, "Welcome him in the Lord with great joy..." I know that our Westwood family will do the same as Andre joins our ministry team.

Join us this Sunday as we give a warm WBC welcome to Andre Towner and his family.
