Greetings in Jesus our Lord!
|
The time is Short—around a month and a half—and I will be living
in Ukraine! You know, this would not be possible without God
calling and all of us answering that call! You are the reason
Missionaries like myself can go and reach out to people who
might otherwise never hear about the Love of God. Therefore, I
have planned a special “Thank You” for you all (well,
except for those who live too far away). I was planning to have
a “going away” party—or a “leave America already” partyJ - then
I realized this is not about me; it’s about God and his
faithful, obedient people! It’s about YOU! I want
to throw a huge party/barbecue in your honor. All you have to
bring is yourself—I will be providing plenty of food, drink, and
parking spaces at my trailer houseJ! |
