Dear Friends,
II Corinthians 9:15 – “Thanks be unto God for His unspeakable gift.”
We do thank God for His gift, the Lord Jesus.
We have had a good year. The church is doing well. Attendance goes up and down, but a few weeks ago we had 80 on Sunday. The Sunday School classes, Bible studies and children’s clubs are all going well also. We have a 79 year old man who has been attending church for about 4 months. Last month, he accepted Christ as Savior. What a miracle for a man his age.
Our family is doing well. Steve and Tammy’s oldest, Andrew, became a teenager this year, and was on the soccer team for their school. They won the state championship for the Kentucky Christian Schools. Their middle son, Lucas, had emergency surgery for a ruptured appendix. After several weeks of battling infection, he is finally about back to normal, thank the Lord. Their youngest, Levi, accepted the Lord and was baptized this year. They are all doing well in school. Todd and Christa are busy with school, church and the boys. Todd is working on his Masters in Bible. Chandler is learning Bible verses and their little one, Chanan, goes to school with Daddy, Mama and brother. Don’s mother will be 83 in February and is doing really well. We thank the Lord for all our family.
We also thank God for a healthy year. We are trying to take care of ourselves so we can serve the Lord for many more years.
We thank the Lord for our friends who pray for us and support us. May God give you a Merry Christmas as we celebrate our Savior’s birth, and may He give you a blessed New Year.
In Christ’s love,
Don & Elaine Stephens
