Just so you know, (put on best Southern drawl American accent), ‘I appreciate you’.
I jest, but these three small words can seem hard for some people to say despite how powerful they are when spoken and received by the hearer.
It’s easy to make comments, find fault, defend your corner and have an opinion. Maybe we need to learn to say ‘Well done’, ‘Good job’, and ‘I appreciate what you have done’ more often.
So let me be first to say to all the teams who serve across all our locations at Xcel, ‘I appreciate you’. Your effort, your sacrifice and your willingness to do whatever it takes to build local church does not go unnoticed. Thank you.
If you are using a southern drawl, you better make it “I appreciate y’all”!! Coming from an American living in the south now…. and I’m sure your teams appreciate you right back!!
