We just wanted to take a moment to let you know how very much we appreciate you, Pastor Brent. You preach the Word with wisdom and integrity. Your wit and transparency (and corny jokes) make the truth of God’s word relatable, applicable and alive. Every week you offer an opportunity to respond as the Holy Spirit leads, which is so appreciated and allows us to be obedient to His Word. Your sincere care for everyone in our church is so evident and your life reflects Christ in you. Laura, you are such a beautiful person, inside and out. It has been so nice getting to know you. You are authentic, fun and hospitable, always welcoming and connecting with people. You do such a beautiful job leading us in worship and offering encouragement to really focus our attention on the words we are declaring. You are very gifted. Thank you both for always being so welcoming and kind to us. When we were new to the church, you made a point to greet us, be friendly and lighthearted to our kids, and make us feel like we could actually bring our feral daughter without being judged. You’ve opened your home and cottage to us (and we’ll always have a Braeside story to tell thanks to Jaden) and your lives exemplify Jesus and point us towards Him. It takes unwavering devotion, strength of character, sacrifice, integrity, boldness and so many more qualities to be a light in our culture and to stand for truth. You both possess these qualities as you lead our church. Thank you both for being you! You are truly a treasure that not every church is so blessed with. Love, Joost, Christine, Caleb, Jaden & Hailey Buruma
