Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Well, thank you very much.

Thank you. That's enough to encourage you to stand up and talk out loud.

It's a delight to be here and to share in this day at the church and

And I bring greetings from Anna, who is not with me.

She said, honey, we're going to get on the plane Saturday morning.

We'd fly back there, be at church,

and she loves coming here,
