Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Dearest Evy,

Thank you for your emails, with calendars and the earlier one telling of your busy life with Vito and how a nice Christian lady looks after your baby son Sean! I am glad you like the songs. I hope she can teach you some Christmas Carols like Silent Night in Taiwanese! I remember trying to learn “Yes, Jesus loves me” with you. Christopher has come back from the USA. He has got bad jet-lag and is not sleeping very well, always waking up too early! We went to help him with his house which needs a lot of tidying. He has one boy and two sweet girls staying with him as lodgers. I made some shelves for all his records which he uses for D-J-ing at nightclubs. Maybe ,our elder daughter Rachel is pregnant so I could be a granddad next year! We wait for confirmation. Louise and her new husband Rick will stay with us for Christmas and then they go travelling on January 17th to India, Nepal, Hong-Kong, China [ and will go where I was born, Lanzou] and on to Australia and New Zealand. We are getting ready for Christmas, putting up decorations, getting the food and next week we go Carol Singing starting with Compton Acres Gardens followed by visits to Nursing Homes to sing to the old people. There will be lots on at church. I hope you will see your family and have a happy time, but maybe that will be at Chinese New Year. I was very pleased to hear about Angel, to know she is expecting a baby and that she is happily married in Poland. What a big change for her!

We pray that God will keep you all safe and that perhaps you may think on Jesus at this Christmas time. We say Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. It is a bit early but life is very busy! You write your emails so well, you have not forgotten your English. Well done, well done!

Much love,

Dennis and Elizabeth

We were in America, Washington DC

Dearest Evy,

I have had a number of photo emails from you for which many thanks. It is good to keep in touch and to know you are still there. I hope you, Vito and baby Sean are well. We were in America, Washington DC for the last half of October. We went to a friend’s wedding. She was English and she married a nice American. We also had some good times sightseeing, especially the Space Museum. Now the weather is much colder and I am going to the allotment to do some weeding and clearing up. My computer went wrong and it has taken a long time to get it right. I wish you were here to help me. I hope it will send you this email. I must write to Hyun-jeong soon.

Much love,

Dennis and Elizabeth

Re your itinerary!

Dearest Evy,

How happy we are for you and we look forward to you coming with Vito. Will you be married before you come? You must let us know the day so that we can be with you in spirit!! Now I will meet you both at Bournemouth Airport when you fly down from Edinburgh and we will get you to the coach for London Airport on the 15th when you fly home. You have given us a big and happy surprise and we are full of excitement!!
All of Heaven’s blessings on you both,
Love,
Dennis and Elizabeth

Re parcel!

Your lovely parcel arrived yesterday! What a wonderful surprise! We enjoyed the sweets and the biscuits, especially the musical box, playing the Wedding March. Then all the lovely photos of you and Vito. So they will go up on the mantel shelf above the fire. I enjoyed the scan pictures of your baby and we pray often for your health and the baby’s safety. He/she will truly be a gift from God and the reason for great joy among us all. May you and Vito be greatly blessed in the coming days!

With love,

Dennis and Elizabeth

God bless you and keep following Jesus

Dearest Evy,

Thank you for your text message. I am hoping my computer is working. Thank you for your Christmas email which I received. We are looking forward to seeing you with Vito and hope you won’t get too cold when you come in February. We shall be in Tenerife, Spain until the 11th Feb I think but it will be lovely to have you both stay with us on 13th and 14th. I sent an email to Winnie which I hope has reached her, just to find out where she is and what she is doing.

God bless you and keep following Jesus, the Good Shepherd,

Much love,

Dennis and Elizabeth
