For William

Willaim, I wanted to tell you thanks for all you have done here at this new site. It really offers more than MSN ever did, only the pretty pages are left out and I don't think that is what made this group stick together. It's the people each and everyone, no matter how often one writes or just comes in to browse. I commend you on a job well done.

William, I second that. Thank you for finding and conveying fresh hope. Your work shows, and the new Port is shaping up.

And Tobiejo, thank you for posting this message. When the long-time Harbormaster passes the torch to another, that carries some credibility. The torch, of course, is used to light the light in the new lighthouse.

it was time to pass it on, may someone be there for William when he needs. thanks for your warm words Dan.

Thanks, Tobie
And a fine group of people we have here! I am depending on each of you to help me make this our 'Net home!

By the way, we can have a good Welcome Page, like what we had at the Port. I just need to add a portal and fix it up! Once we enter by the Welcome Portal, it will have a place to click to take us to the Forums.

Always yours,
-William

Thanks, Dan
With all the encouragement and support, I know I will serve you well. I think of my name, William, as Willing. I am willing to serve. When we talk of Spiritual Gifts, I am hoping that my strongest gift is the gift of prophecy. But I think my hopes of having the gift of strongly preaching the Word is eclipsed by my actual strongest gift which is the gift of serving and giving.

Having said that, I have shared the powers of administration and moderating with our core Port group members. I will have to check out various powers, but I think our core group have powers to change the site as well as edit posts. Those of you who have Admin powers should have all the powers that I do except for the actual accountability for the site. So, don't be afraid to add enhancements or things of interest to the members of the site. You are my right hand and I am depending on you!

Thanks so much for the support, encouragement, and for sharing of yourselves in the posts!

As Tobie so aptly put it, the people make this port what it is! This is a reflection of us at our best as we create, write, and share!

Your servant,
-William
