Dear Friends,

The countdown just keeps getting smaller and smaller while my excitement for finally getting to Coleraine just grows and grows. I will be in Coleraine in exactly seven days, and flying out of Houston in six.

This past week has been full of good-byes and my official ‘last supper’ with my entire, lovely family was last night. We ate at Chili’s, made entirely too much noise and laughed a lot. I’m going to miss them gobs.

I’m also saying good-bye to my Bammel Church family in the morning, which is a weird thing to think about. I have been there for 18 years (minus the eight months I spent in Lubbock) and I won’t see them for two years after tomorrow. At least I know I will come back…it just might take 24 months.

I want to thank you all for all the laughter, love and support you’ve given me over the last eighteen years. I have been so blessed to have been around such a great church family for so long.

Sincerely,

Kelly
