This is a thank you letter to Fifth Reformed Church in Grand Rapids, MI, from the Segasinde family who came to the U.S. in the summer of 2021.

The Segasinde family receives the keys to their new home from the owner.

Greetings in Jesus’ Name!

On behalf of the family of Jean and Louise, we want to express our sincere appreciation for the kindness and love Fifth Reformed Church has extended to our family over the past few months that we have been in the United States of America.

Moving here, we did not think we were going to be met by so much love and kindness from people we had never met before.  Brother Dave and Sam came to meet our family and introduced us to many loving people from Fifth Reformed Church who made our moving experience amazing.

Our hearts are full of joy and gratitude for the family we have in you.  And we always pray for each one of you for blessings from God.

Words cannot express how much we appreciate and love all of you.  But we hope this Thanksgiving reminds you that the Lord’s work you do filled us with great joy and happiness.

“Let your lives overflow with thanksgiving for all He has done.”  Colossians 2:7 (NLT)

From: Jean, Louise, Esther, Joel, Mucyo, Rebecca, Joshua, Dorcas, and Deborah
