The joy of being reunited with the brothers and sisters from the church.
By God’s grace, we were able to be with our children, Ema and Taylor, for a very special event—both for them and for us.
The Lord has blessed them with a baby girl: Hannelore Maria.
For them, she is their first child, and for us, our first grandchild.
We have seen God’s faithfulness in fulfilling His promises: “you will see your children’s children…” and we want to thank Him with all our hearts.
We had a blessed time together and were glad to be of help to them, especially now at the beginning.
We also enjoyed a beautiful fellowship with the church there, where brothers and sisters from many nations and different backgrounds gather to worship. It is wonderful to see the great family of the Lord, with whom we will be not only here, but for eternity, together with our Lord.
The reunion with the brothers and sisters from the churches was truly special, as if we had not seen each other for a very long time.
It was a great joy for us to hear their gratitude for the grace of being reunited and rejoicing together once again. This shows the bond of love between us—a bond that is possible only among those who belong to Christ. Glory to Him!
We also visited several brothers and sisters who are sick or facing difficulties that arose during the time we were away. Two sisters—both physically and spiritually our sisters in Christ—were hospitalized: Sister Dorina and Sister Victoria. They are doing better now, but we continue to pray for their full recovery, as they are struggling with lung and heart issues.
Another sister, Camelia, is facing problems with her husband and had to take refuge with her daughter’s family due to his aggressive behavior. We pray for her, and also for him—that he may return to the Lord.
We also have a brother who was diagnosed with cancer, and he told me, “Brother, I prayed that the Lord would keep me until you returned from America,” and he was so glad that the Lord answered his prayer.
Now we look to the Word of the Lord in Ecclesiastes, where we see that everything we have is God’s gift, and whether we enjoy blessings or go through trials, we know that God is in control and makes all things beautiful in their time.
Be blessed, and thank you for standing with us in all these things.
