I would like to begin this month’s report by wishing you all a very Happy New Year! I also hope and pray that all of you reading this message also had a joyous time of celebration and worship over Christmas. I am very much aware that Christmas 2020 was probably quite unusual for everyone receiving this message.

Once again, as long as COVID-19 continues to affect us, I will continue to update you all as to how our ministry is affected by the virus.
