Debbie Griffith - Other

Thank you Dan Griffith for being such a godly servant-husband who loves me unconditionally and Marco, Peter, Joey and David I’m truly honored to be your mother. You love me, teach me and make me laugh. I love my boys!

Dad and Mom Richards you helped in teaching me what love is all about and the relationship that goes with it. I realize now, more than ever, the privilege of having opportunities to travel and step out and take risks. I experienced the freedom to discover life and its adventures. You definitely contributed to me finding out who I am in Christ. Thank you Brother Jay Richards for your “Amen’s” and acceptance & love and for marrying a wonderful woman, Jonell, who is a perfect sister. Together you gave me more boys to love…my four nephews…how great is God?! I’m so proud that I grew up a Maplelag girl.

What would have I done without Dan’s sister, “Auntie Saint Sharon” Griffith and her steady love, support and childcare…truly amazing! My “sister”-in-law Danita Ducharme I thank you for your heart, honesty & sisterhood and for the four nephews and niece you’ve done such a wonderful job in raising. I’m so thankful that we all live in the Icebox together.

Aunt Ginger Oakes you mean so much to me I can’t adequately express it. You led me to Jesus and you explained the importance of Manna and what it’s all about. You are the best mentor and role model I could ever have asked for. And the best part…your sense of humor! But wait, you did marry amazing Uncle Stan Oakes who I look up to (literally) as you both seek to change hearts and minds for the Kingdom of God through The Kings College in the Empire State Building and you gave me a kindred spirit in my Cousin Amy. www.tkc.edu

Being a theatre major I realize that it’s not the actor on stage that should get all the accolades but the team behind the actor (lights, sound, set, etc.) which makes him or her truly stand out as a success.

Number one thanks goes to JESUS the WORD WHO BECAME FLESH and dwelt among us. He gave me, Debbie Griffith, Everyday Manna as a ministry and the team to make it possible:

The gang at radio station psalm995.org has been incredible. Bruce Christopherson as station manager, I thank you for your servant’s heart and listening to my manna talks in your office. The opportunity to share my heart and stories…I’m just so grateful. Gene Gee I thank you for your encouragement and seeing the potential for Everyday Manna to be heard on other stations. Tim Nelson the producer, I think of you as a little brother who makes recording a fun and valuable experience…”everytime.” Dawn Nyborg thank you for your mentoring, love, support and prayers…truly a gift. And Diane Otto your smile and prayers are always an encouragement to me.

Jim Boyd you are so super with your intellect, computer savvy knowledge and you’re always smiling. I love how the site turned out! Not only that, you’re married to incredible Araina who “gets me” and “gets it.” Thanks Araina for your beautiful prayers, wardrobe advice and taking care of “Manna Mail.” I’m so proud of you. Mike Worth what a God-send you are! You are brilliant… taking over site maintenance and adding audio. You always seem to find a solution when needed! What a gift you are to this ministry. Pam Rooney your art on every single page of this site is truly spectacular! But even more is your gentle and sweet spirit which has so greatly added to my life. Thank you for being someone I can always count on. Beth Nelson I love who you are! You are the perfect person to “proof” manna and I appreciate your ears… always hearing me out. Mary Boyum…everyone needs a Mary in their life. You are an amazing friend with your wisdom, discernment, prayers, administrative skills and advice that’s limitless! As the ministry grows I plan to have a page on the site called, “Ask Mary…everyday solutions for everyday glitches.”
