Northminster Presbyterian Church,

Thank you very much to both committees for the Sue Barnes Dillon and Memorial Scholarships. I am very appreciative of the awards that I have received.
I am also very thankful for the Bible that I have been given. I appreciate the continued thoughts and prayers throughout the years as I have grown up and grown in my faith!
