We wish you all a Merry
Christmas and a Happy New
Year and God’s richest
blessings for the coming
year!
We attended a fundraising dinner for Ruby CC,
just before they had their ground breaking for
their new church building. God is increasing
their numbers.

I guess we have made an impact of sorts, not the
one we were looking to make, but here, in Barbados,
