Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,
It is with great joy that we hear about the fact that
your now have your own church building to worship, witness and raise the
covenant seed in the truth of sovereign grace. What a significant
milestone in the history of your church.
We remember with fondness the former pet store where
we worshipped with you in Larne. Then, later worship in the hall and
seeing the property you purchased and hoped for a building of your own.
God is faithful in giving you a place of your own and
that at the same time you have the added witness of a missionary of your
own also.
We look forward to worshiping with you at some point
in the future. Please remember that you are always in our prayers and
dear to our hearts.
Donna and I will always feel that we are members of
your congregation—though a long ways away.
God bless you all as a congregation—and as dear
brothers and sisters in Christ.
In the name of our glorious and sovereign Lord,
Deane and Donna Wassink (Holland PRC, Michigan)
