Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God’s grace in its various forms. Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.

Our Speaker: Andi Colmery
Andi was raised in Chester County, PA as the youngest of four on an 18-acre “farm” that is still in the family today. While not farmers by trade, her mom and dad learned much about being in the country from neighbors, and Andi loved being raised there. She has an older sister and brother along with her oldest sister, born with profound disabilities, who is now with the Lord. After earning a BA in music from the King’s College, she married Buddy. They have 3 grown kids, all married to wonderful spouses and 11 grands. They are both active in their church, Brick Lane Community Church in Elverson, PA in many ways, and spend a fair amount of time grand-parenting! She is thankful to be here, sharing some simple things from God’s word she has learned along the way.
