5 /5 Anna Pruett: After retiring and moving to Florida from Pennsylvania three years ago I felt adrift and needed desperately to find a home with a community of Christians here in Sebring. I prefer a small church for many reasons, and at Atonement I have been welcomed and given the chance to use my talents (such as they are!) to benefit the church and the Community as a whole.
For a small congregation which suffers from Snowbird-itis (we lose 50% of our congregation in the summer) we have a wonderful and patient musical director, Mary, who encourages those of us who love music to join our choir and we have an enthusiastic music group which is learning new music constantly. The people here are hard -working and friendly, and the pastor is a wonderful, nurturing and humble man. Pastor David preaches the Gospel and is always available to help us with all we need to thrive.
I was very ill for a good part of last year. It was in great part, the prayers and kindness of the good people of Atonement Lutheran which helped to get me back on my feet. I thank God for leading me to this place where I am surrounded by the Love and the Grace of God.
Sincerely,
Anna Pruett
