LETTER: A picture of hope

I took this picture this morning (Dec. 12) in Pfeifer. My children woke to such a pretty sight of snow on the ground. Excited, they looked through every window of our house and anxiously awaited until they could go out and play in the snow! They asked me to take a picture of our church because as my 4-year-old daughter said, “It is so pretty sprinkled with snow.”

As I snapped the picture, a mourning dove flew into the frame! When my children and I looked at the picture, I told them that it was a sign. A sign of HOPE that PEACE would come again in this crazy world that has unfolded and changed our lives this past year. 

Again, I didn’t know who to contact for something like this and I don’t know if you can even use things like these but I thought in these times of such constant change and uncertainty, everyone could use a sign of HOPE!

Thank you.
