Dear Faithful Supporters:

We are pleased to report that the Lord is doing great things here in High Wycombe. We had our first Christmas Eve service and despite high winds and rain we had a record attendance of ‘55’. Our people worked hard to invite their family and friends. After the service we had the traditional mince pies, tea and coffee.

January has started off very busily. We have just completed a month of messages on biblical stewardship. It is a joy to see our people respond with tremendous giving. Carol has started a ladies Bible study that meets every other week. Our men meet each Tuesday morning at 6:45 for Bible study. Spiritual growth abounds as does testing. But spiritual maturity abounds also.

We now have five people attending regularly who are lost. I would love to report that at least one of them has come to Christ, but not yet. I believe two of them are close. Please continue to pray for the salvation of Elleana, Kate, Lydia, Kevin and Rita. Please pray for James, one of our young men, who is supposed to get baptized soon. We set one date but it had to be changed.

Our attendance is holding steady with 35-40 people attending each week. We will be losing one of our faithful families who are moving away. However, we continue to have a steady stream of visitors.

At every turn we are encouraged with the progress that has been made in the nine months since we started the church. We have a beautiful building, a faithful core of committed Christians and the prospects are bright. We thank you for your continued faithful support. Our people are increasingly thankful that you make it possible for them to have a full time pastor.

In His Service,

The Esquibels
