Year 2025

A new house; a new ministry; a new chapter.
We moved into our new house on April 07. Built on our back lot. What a privilege to design your own house! I designed it for our needs, for our furniture, and for our new ministry. I think of it as a large cabin divided in two parts. The front half holds the living room, the dining room, and the kitchen. The back half serves as our bedroom, family room, and office. Plants, trees, and flowers line all four sides of the house, and the front door leads right into our covered patio. All this serves well for having people over for bible study, games, and meals. Couldn't ask for more.
So we've hosted numerous guests, bible studies, and visitors.
The new chapter is different. Faby's health is declining and we're pretty much restricted to our home. Many a Sunday, we wake up, get dressed for church, and Faby suddenly says, "My head hurts and I'm dizzy." And so we stay home. We've visited all the doctors you can think of with no results. So we leave everything in God's hands; pray daily for wisdom; and keep trying different remedies. There's no cure for memory loss, and we live one day at a time. I read, take online courses, do gardening, and keep the house in order.
On the side I use my gifts to serve the community. Security is a big issue, and I've managed to install six alarms and three cameras in our neighborhood so far. They named me "president" for doing all that. I can't do much else, but continue to pray for the day when our testimony bears fruit in our community.
Faby needs prayer and support! Thanks to all those who lift us up continually!
