It is hard to believe that almost a year has passed since this picture was taken of Ruth and me with Papa Doorn at our annual Christmas service! Little did we know what lay ahead of us for the new year 2020.  Papa Doorn prophesied the "CHANGE" was coming. Wow! He nailed it for sure! On January 1st we decided to change locations of our church to a building on Atlantic Blvd. The move was completed in mid February just as Covid-19 was about to hit.  With the shut downs and some building permit delays, we were not able to have services in the new place until August. During those months we met in Robert and Irene Fellows' home. Some of our regular members have stopped coming and we still are less than half the size we were when this picture was taken. Our missions activity was severely cut back with only one trip to Nepal in February. We have sent a lot of support to help feed hungry people in Kenya, India, Nepal, Honduras and others. In all of this, God has been faithful to us all for which we are thankful. Ruth and I have made trips to Nepal, Des Moines, Iowa, Phoenix, Arizona, Spokane, Washington, Knoxville, Tennessee as well as several trips within the state of Florida. In all of this, we have avoided the dreaded virus and other sicknesses all to God's glory. Now we are about to celebrate another Christmas season and Papa Doorn (age 91) is scheduled to be with us again on December the 20th. This will be his 20th year in a row to be with us on Christmas Sunday! We are still in the midst of election controversy and praying constantly about the outcome. We believe the prophets and trust God for a great victory. 2021 is looking to be a great year for the Kingdom of God! I BELIEVE JESUS IS LORD!!!
