Journey Completed

Dear family, brethren, and friends,

The journey which began July 26 to Kenya and the Philippines was completed tonight, September 1, about 11:00 PM under a beautiful full moon.  My heart overflows with thanksgiving for the blessings of God in travel and in these labors for His kingdom.

One of the greatest blessings of being a Christian is the fellowship, inspiration, and encouragement of other Christians.  I extend my love and thanksgiving to brethren in Kenya and the Philippines who have been co-workers for the cause of Christ for these past several weeks, and to all who have helped to make  this work possible with prayers, donations, and words of encouragement.  47 precious souls were baptized into Christ through these joint efforts.

I barely made my connecting flights because of delays in the flight schedules (my suitcase is still in transit somewhere).  Andy Alexander and Keith Greer should have reached Louisville ahead of me because they left Manila several hours before I did, but their flights on different airlines were also delayed and they arrived here shortly after I did.  You will be glad to know their travels were also safe.

I must apologize for many unanswered emails as a result of all of this travel, and I can never catch up on all of the messages.  Thank you for your understanding.  Even now, a ton of work is waiting for me here at home and I regret my correspondence cannot be handled in a timely manner.

May God bless us all as we press toward heaven together!

In Christian love,
Ron Halbrook
