I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now. (Philippians 1:3-5, NIV)
We give all glory and honour to the Lord for your partnering with us. Without your support and especially your prayers, our ministry would never have been possible. We give our heartfelt special thanks to all of you for your sacrificial giving.
We know it has been a long time since we last visited you as a family and personally shared with you about our incredible ministry in Roatan. It has not been easy for us or for you either.
However, we continue in Roatan doing the ministry to which God has called us and that has been possible thanks to your prayers and the financial support that you have given us personally and as churches.
We have wanted to visit you personally and it has not been possible due to the governments’ COVID -related travel restrictions.
We are excited to share with you that next year, in 2023, we will be visiting you in your parishes and sharing our experiences with you.
We know that time passes quickly and we will share the dates with you as soon as we have them.
We thank God for your partnership in our ministry, especially in prayer.
