A Loving Note

I’m aware the contents of this page may make you nervous. I want you to be informed before making the decision to join us for the wedding. I’ve spent a lot of time in this country in many different regions, asking God for wisdom, trusting Him and the local people that are in charge of my care. Pray about your decision. With God, there’s no need to fear.
