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)
