Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
May God richly bless you and yours
throughout this coming year.
You might be asking, “Why didn’t we hear
from the Steens last year?” Our answer: We spent three days last Christmas as
volunteers with “Your Best Pathway to Health”,
Phoenix. Then after a few days in Yuma with
Larry’s family, we rushed home to begin serious remodeling on our Silver Point home. That big several-months major work project is now
done and we are greatly enjoying simply
being home bodies with occasional travel
to spend time with friends and classmates
or just stay home and work in our productive garden and on our beautiful hilltop farm.
We made lots of new friends locally this
year with our year-long Bible study outreach initiative sponsored by our local Lancaster SDA church. And we had a couple family gatherings right
here on our Silver Point farm. What about those occasional
trips?
Oh yea, there were three trips to MI, one for a graduation, another for an
alumni weekend and then the funeral of our good friend Bob Wilkins. And we spent two
weeks in Ethiopia in
August working for the Akaki Adventist School. Then in September, together we
officiated the Virginia wedding for grandsonTrent and his bride Sydney as
well as enjoyed a familyreunion in Colorado. October found us attending a 50 yr college class reunion in TN
before going to NC for a couple creation talks in November.
You can check out our Facebook pages if
you don’t mind being bored by even more pictures.
Through it all, the work and the
recreation, the stay-at-home and the travel, the laughter and the tears, God
has blessed us with good health and a heightened awareness of His unquenchable
love and His imminent return. Let us all be ready to look up and say, “Wow –
there He is - this is our God – we
have waited for Him.”
Much Love,
D&L
