As our first full year here in Weed, California, comes to a close we see our country, and indeed much of the world, gripped by fear anxiety.  Many are so enslaved to fear that they are not going out, even to church.  This makes it hard to reach out to and minister to the unchurched.  As a result, we haven’t seen any new people visit us.  We also lost a family who moved away to be near their grandchildren.  We, however, do not lose hope.  The Lord has been working in the hearts of His people here and there has been spiritual growth and great joy.  We know He is with us always, even to the end of the age, and we also know that many of you have partnered with us in this ministry here.  Because we don not fear the world or men but fear the Lord, we have confidence in the future that has been put on hold for a time.  We eagerly await what the Lord has in store for us in the coming year.  God bless!
