“For I have had great joy and comfort and encouragement from your love, because the hearts of the saints (God’s people) have been refreshed through you, my brother.”   Philemon 1:7 AMP

Hello Friends in Christ! Here we just completed the 1^st ¼ of this New Year! MyMyMy! I give thanks to God for the many opportunities that He has brought my way. This ‘New Year’ also means a year older. Nothing that I can do about that: “keep on keeping on”! Glory to God!

From the very outset of the year, I started being intentional about connecting with friends in every area of life. The church gatherings, co-workers, visiting friends in the hospital, the Jesus Gathering – people from seven different states and of course, lots of DA’s along the way. In addition, I  celebrated our 73^rd Birthday – I have a twin sister!

I have been doing a lot of discipleship lately, especially via FaceTime, phone calls and texting. In all reality, we do not need to go very far in reaching out to be a blessing to people. I also had the opportunity to visit a small life group in Harrisburg, PA. I met some more amazing brothers and sisters in Christ. Not to mention, it was in the middle of a winter storm! But God….

There is now a regional men’s group that started about two months ago and I am excited to see how the lives of these men will be forever changed! Moreover, charged and encouraged in the ways of God, and to have a direct impact on our community; It is definitely exciting to see the hunger among these men and to be in each other’s lives. As I continue the journey, I have noticed that there is such a hunger/need for community. Doing life together! This is where we must be intentional about establishing and building relationships. I welcome a community of believers in my life and journey. However, it is happening in different areas of my life – but there is more!

There is great joy in being a part of the body of Christ, which enables us to serve one another. During this 1^st quarter, I have both seen and have been a part of serving those around me – even going the extra mile and then some! Praise Jesus! I have been connecting with many people from around the country. Moreover, as time allows, even visit them for a day or two. There are a bunch of guys just southwest of Nashville that I visit often. We pretty much adopted each other; I have been able to clean the kitchen a bit, and cook a few meals and just hang with them. Truly amazing!

I began to recognize that I have a community in many different activities / events that I am involved with and or a part of. I have had the opportunity to visit so many guys in the last couple of months and I am hearing the cry for community / fellowship of the brethren. I continue to see the ‘goodness of the Lord’ in the land of the living. His faithfulness is beyond words. In the midst of our changing world, I definitely have had some challenges that I have had to just push through and to stay focused on Jesus! When I consider my options, I really do not have any options! I have also had the opportunity to reach out to people in five different states, both encouraging them and being encouraged! For we are all co-laboring with Christ for the souls of men! Absolutely amazing! God is faithful and He is good to me☺!

Thank you for your faithfulness in prayers, financial support and friendship, and love and care towards me. May God’s grace and favor rest upon you all in a greater way and give you peace! Blessing to you all!
