This is how we spent part of our time the last few hours of 2008. Could you be outside at 9 PM grilling in short sleaves? Living Waters Nazarene Church had a time of fellowship and games then at 10 PM we went into the Church for a time of testimonies, singing and then brought in the New Year while in Prayer. It was beautiful.
Reflecting back on 2008: We did not know this time last year that we would be serving God in Swaziland. We do not know what 2009 holds for us but we do know Who Holds Our Future. Praise God! He has been so good to us and taken us places we had only dreamed of. God has also taken us out of our comfort zone many times but He has always been with us each step of the way.
We pray and ask God for a Blessed, Healthy, Fulfilling 2009 year for you. None of us know when our lives may be done on this earth but the key is to be ready to live FOREVER with Christ in Heaven. We pray that everyone who reads this has made the commitment to live for Christ Eternally. If not NOW IS THE TIME.
We love you all!

Dear Ones, thanks for starting my new year on such a positive note! We love you, and miss you, but are confident that you are where God wants you for how! Grace, peace and blessings to you day by day in 2009. Margaret
It is thrilling to think of you in Swaziland. Jack and I spend 9 years in Botswana working with church and education.We visited Swaziland more than once. Drs Phil and Judy Kingsley of the Bluffton faculty worked there several years.
I hope you are enjoying African music and contributing some of your own. Christine Purves
Happy New Year! We are in Ft. Wayne enjoying time with our friends here. Lots of food and games and fun and noise (10 kids!) Love you both!
