Richard, Beth and Jesse
We started corresponding with Richard in 1989,
blessed to be able to visit him in 1994. In 1999, Richard accepted Jesus as His Lord and Savior! God is good!
Taken from a letter Richard wrote:
"I have some very good news for you and
Jesse! I know it's been a long time you have been waiting to hear this. Beth and Jesse, I have accepted Jesus Christ
in my life as my Savior! I feel very wonderful and blessed these days. And I just wanted to write and share this
with you my friends! I know that you two are happy for me. It's been a long time coming, I know that. Also I know
there is a lot ahead of me, that I must be careful because of the world I was once in. I truly believe that God
will provide a way for me."
