Dearly beloved brethren,

We look into 2018 with consistently growing hope for our edification and completion in Christ.

In Hebrews 11:6 we read, “But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him”.

Faithfulness to Christ is our motto for this year, and is the least we can do for all His faithfulness to us in spite of our failures and shortcomings.

We also wanted to dedicate this year to teaching our children about God’s special love for children, His reward to those ‘who diligently seek Him’, and His faithfulness to all of mankind.

May each of us help in holding onto the hand of at least one child, and guiding him or her on the path to eternal fellowship with God. Please use every opportunity at hand to encourage the children in our surroundings to attend Sunday Schools, religious Instructions and Confirmations, and become acquainted with God’s plan for us according to the Gospel explained in the Bible. this will then im-mensely help all of us to better understand our Catechism and our beautiful Creed.

Wishing each of you, rich experiences in your walk and talk with our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
