To Our CDA Family:

Thank you so very much for the many kindnesses and gifts - including the writing desk and the beautiful painting - you have offered us these past weeks as we prepare to leave for Oklahoma and the next chapter in our lives. Words cannot express the love we have felt from you - and that we feel for you. We are the benefactors of all the years we have spent at Coram Deo. We have learned many lessons from you in how to walk as faithful Christians in this difficult world that God so loves He sent His only begotten Son to die for it.

We hope we can remain in contact with many of you, and we want you to please let us know any time that we may be of service. This includes if you need a place to stay the night or a meal when passing through the Norman, Oklahoma area. Please know that you will be in our hearts as we go forward, and that our joy is bittersweet, and mixed with sadness at parting from you. That being said, we look forward to seeing you Friday night, September 8th, when Katie's new school, Christian Heritage Academy, comes to play football at Josey Ranch and begin a new Red River rivalry with the mighty CDA Lions--see you there! "For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, so that you may be established--that is, that I may be encouraged together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me." (Romans 1:11-12)

With much love,
John, Grace, and Katie Dwyer
