         <description><![CDATA[<div>Pastor Debbie, it has been a joy to get to know and serve alongside you! Thank you for making time for me, for loving me, and showing me how to go to God for healing.

I can see how well you love Debbie, and you guys really inspire me on what a healthy marriage looks like, which includes helping each other grow.<br><br>I will definitely miss you both dearly, but I'm so happy for you too!<br>Love,<br>Jen Louie</div>]]></description>

For that we are forever grateful, baked goods during counseling sessions were an added bonus.&nbsp;<br><br>Mike - thank you for being a father type figure. I love our common interests in cars, things that go boom, politics, anything manly....they don't make men like they used to.&nbsp; Thank you for the many prayers you've offered up on our behalf. &nbsp;<br><br>Will miss you both more than you can imagine but I know you must go where you are lead. It makes sense, a family pastor needs to go where family is...thank you for making this move be a natural part of you being a living example of a what a family pastor should prioritize in life.&nbsp;<br><br>Love,&nbsp;<br>Jon, Karena, Addison, Abigail, and now Ethan =)</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>You have both done so much for our church family it would be hard to list everything. Thank you particularly for your leadership in Cleansing Stream, women's fellowship and your constant warmth, generosity and kindness in all your interactions with us. The retreats, the EHR study, women's teas &amp; connection events have all helped me grow in faith and hope through our community of women. You've poured and sown so much of yourselves into our church body and I've learned much from your authentic example of life lived in His truth and love over the years. Thank you. <br>May the Lord continue to guide your next steps and I know you will continue to be a source of blessing to all you interact with.<br>Much love,<br>Valerie, Isaac &amp; Livia Chung</div>]]></description>

         <title>Pastor Debbie!! What a blessing, joy and privilege it was do service along side you in SM for the past several months. I particularly enjoyed our one week training, REALLY getting to know each other and preparing for the road ahead. You have been an exemplary example of a godly woman who love her Father, family and church family well (in that order). I’m saddened that we won’t be able to walk this SM journey further but know God will be with both of us for what He has in store. Please stay in touch and don’t forget about your Epicentre family. Keep fighting the good fight, loving God and loving others, SHINING brightly for Jesus!!</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Pastor Debbie and Mike,&nbsp;<br>You both have been such a blessing to all of us! I (Tammy) have always truly appreciated the ways Debbie has shown her motherly love over me. Debbie, you have always chosen to believe in me to be the leader God has called me to be by providing me opportunities to step into His calling for me. I will never forget the yummy treats, especially your famous chocolate chip cookies, you dropped off for me during my treatment quarantine. I felt so loved and seen!<br>I (Josh) have been so appreciative of Mike's encouragement over the years particularly with preaching. It was always such a joy to step off the stage and see Mike waiting in the wings (as a prayer minister) and receive me with a hug and word of encouragement. I really experienced the father's love through those moments so I'm so excited that you're going to have the chance to be with your children and grandchildren now and know the affect there is going to carry forward through the generations!&nbsp;<br><br>Thank you for showing us what a loving, affirming, and Godly marriage looks like! We have enjoyed watching you as a team minister to us and our young adults. We are so glad that you both can truly enjoy the fruit you both have worked so hard in harvesting over the years. We cannot wait for the day where we can see each other in person and you both can meet Caleb in person. We love you!<br><br>Love,<br>Tammy, Josh, and Caleb Lo</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Debbie - thank you for being a true MAMA to me (Eeleen) from the time we moved from Singapore to Pasadena. You've been a true spiritual mother to me from day one when you prayed for me when I stepped in, tired from searching for a home church, to discover Epicentre in Cleveland. Thank you for bringing me chicken soup when our family was sick, being the FIRST visitor in hospital when our 2nd was born and being such a big source of encouragement to all the women and mothers all these years, leading women's groups with Annie. You've sat with us and given us your presence, wisdom and JOY. You are a picture of rock-solid faithfulness, wisdom and love all these many years. Thank you for bringing pastoral care to Epicentre, healing hearts with powerful prayer, and just being an oasis of shalom. I've watched you literally partner Holy Spirit to set people free. Your love for His presence, razor sharp discernment and dependence on the Holy Spirit, is something I so admire and want to inherit. You and Mike are such amazing people, championing marriage and wholeness and modelling family, and talking about the needed things.. like sex in marriage ;) I can't say enough of how much the Body of Christ now needs Mothers and Fathers like you who bring a big covering, so much experience &amp; heavenly wisdom, unifying stability and extravagant love. You'll be a TREASURE everywhere you go. Love it that your grandkids and kids get to have you now. love you SO MUCH. - Ian &amp; Eeleen p.s./COME TO SINGAPORE!</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I&nbsp;remember the first day we met at the old church office in 2013. You were willing to listen to me and spoke truth over me and taught me how to rebuke the lies of the enemy. You prayed over me when I got baptized. There were many, many sessions you met with me as a single woman. You always listened well. You have always been gentle and kind, but you would never let me get away when I'm off the path God intended for me to walk. You have been a spiritual mother to me and a living example of how a woman should love God, her husband and how you love your children and grandchildren. When I got married, you also met with Ken and me. Together we attended Cleansing Stream where Mike also led Ken's group and also the many marital counseling sessions where you led us. Both of you guys have really helped us tremendously in our marriage of how we should honor, love and serve each other. You both have been a spiritual mother and father to Epicentre which we will truly miss. Though we are already sad that we haven't been at Epicentre for a while and we won't go back to having you there as our pastor, we are so happy you guys are able to downsize and be around your grandkids. We know it has been on your hearts for so long to be around your grandkids. God has prepared the way for the both of you. And though you both don't know it, it will be a delightful journey. Just as you have trusted Him in the past and have tasted and seen. We know that you guys will continue to do so in the same way and much more, leading your children, grandchildren and those around you to our Lord. We echo the prayer of the church for you to continue to disciple and mentor many of those around who in concrete ways of how to follow Christ. We will truly miss you both and we will do our best to stay in touch.<br><br>We love you guys,<br>Rachel, Ken and Cordarius</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Dear Pastor Debbie and Mike, <br>Words cannot express how grateful I am for the gift you have to care for others. Your ability to hold other people’s sorrow and let them grieve and struggle, but also encourage and give them the tools to contend for more in their lives. I know God has used you in so many ways to say, “nope, not on my watch. I’m sending one of my best to heal this one.” <br><br>For me (Michelle) personally, I cannot thank you enough for walking me through some of the hardest seasons of becoming a young mom. When I look back at all the ways the enemy was trying to steal the joy of that season from me, pastor Debbie you came in and ensured that I felt loved, protected, and understood. It was through your prayers and care that I know now how to uproot lies and speak truth over myself. I often use the tools you gave me to bring freedom to others, and this is a legacy I hope to continue for years to come. You will never be forgotten at Epicentre. <br><br>With so much love, Ben, Michelle, Natalie, Evan (and Billy) </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Dear Pastor Debbie and Mike - thank you for all the ways in which you've led and inspired the Epicentre community. Pastor Debbie, my first memory is of you is when you prayed for me at women's retreat and shared about your family's story.

Excited for the new adventure in whatever and wherever God brings yall next! <br><br>Sincerely, <br>Tiff Mau</div>]]></description>
