Dear family, brethren, and friends,

By the grace of God, I have arrived safely home tonight about 10:30 and it was a great joy to see Donna again!  God has blessed both of us with safe travels (she visited our daughter, Deborah, and Jamie Williams in Texas while I was overseas).  Sunday I will be reunited with all of the saints at the Hebron Lane church of Christ who are so vital to the work just completed in the Philippines and Malaysia.  

I thank God for all of the Filipino and Malaysian saints who helped and labored with me.  May God bless and reward all of you for your sacrifices and service in His kingdom.  Your faith, hope, and love are an inspiration to me to strive to be a better Christian and a better evangelist in serving our Savior.

Please keep brother Ernie Collado in your prayers because his wife just passed away on Mindanao.  

Some correspondence falls behind because of my travels and I apologize if your messages have not been answered.  I will now be busy with plenty of work here at home but will do my best to respond whenever possible.  Thank you for your patience. 

Godspeed to all of God’s servants, wherever you are located.  

In Christian love,
Ron Halbrook
