>>CHARLOTTE: I’m the oldest lady, probably, in this congregation. But it’s my association
with the younger people that keeps me going. [pause] I have so many people that I just
have grown close to and just dearly love. [pause] When I first came here someone asked
me to be a greeter. If a person is coming into church in these front doors, they need
to have somebody there to say hello to them, give them a smile, say, “Hi. I am so happy
that you are with us today.” [pause] You can’t really have a church without
stewardship. Stewardship is important. As a senior I have a limitation of funds, but
I give what I can and I hope that everybody in this congregation can give what they can.
It’s to our God. [pause] It’s just wonderful, I’m so proud
that I’m a member of St. Matthews. I really am!
