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,
