A Message of Gratitude
With a grateful heart, I thank all of you for the love, support, and generosity you showed in making my ordination such a beautiful and memorable celebration. Your presence, your kindness, and your prayers have been a profound gift to me. In many ways, you have been my formators, and I am deeply thankful for the faith you continue to witness and share.
I ask that you continue to pray for me and to help form me, as I look forward to serving you with joy. Please continue to keep me in your prayers, that I may grow each day to be more like Christ, and that through my ministry others may encounter His tenderness, mercy, and love—a love that seeks the lost, heals the broken, and forgives as Christ does. Pray also that I may remain faithful to my ministry throughout my life.
With gratitude and prayers,
Rev. David Basil
