A Message of Thanksgiving from the desk of Pastor Wayne,
Greetings to each of you in our ICM Family,
On Thursday we celebrate Thanksgiving.
The first Thanksgiving in 1621 after hundreds of pilgrims had died and
after much suffering and yet the Thanksgiving celebration lasted for 3 days.
Something has been lost; Thanksgiving
has been replaced by "black Friday," football games and over eating. Little time is spent on Thanksgiving;
family, friends, work, others, freedoms unkown in most of the world.
The Message says it this way... "The
one who blesses others is abundantly blessed; those who help others are helped." ~ Proverbs 11:25
Since 1972
ICM - Industrial & Commercial Ministries has trained and placed men and women, lay and clergy, from many denominations,
as ICM Chaplains in the workplace who reach others with God's love by being "a caring presence."
We,
today, owe so much to so many in the life of ICM. May we this Thanksgiving pause long enough to remember them and to
give praise to God for His help.
* Our Faithful ICM Chaplains * Local ICM Chapters Leaders *
National Board Members * Jennifer Crider, Administrative Assistant National Office
* Those who had the vision to shape, with God's help, an outreach mission of the local church to reach working
folks within their communities
Enjoy Thanksgiving Day with your family and friends. Remember who has
made it possible.... "Know that the Lord, He is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves."
~ Psalms 100:3
We at National ICM are thankful for your prayers, your efforts, wise wisdom and your financial support.
YOU are ICM!
My God Bless you and your this day and always.
Humbly in His Service, Pastor Wayne
