Dear Pastor and Church,
When I write you a letter, I like to give you a report of what is taking place in Belgium in the church at Rixensart. The past three months have been very dry as far as contacts and visitors and souls being saved. The Thanksgiving dinner was a success as far as numbers, and we did have eleven visitors that came for the services and testimonies. Our Christmas program got snowed out. I have never cancelled a Sunday Morning service until December 20, 2009. We got snowed out. My family could not physically make it to church. The snow plows did not even try to run that day. We had nearly a foot of snow in our area that fell from 7 A.M. until 1 P.M. We did the service exactly two weeks later and while the overall number was down we had 10 visitors for that day.

Our ladies are heavily involved in the teaching and training of the children during this club. It has been encouraging to see their work preparing and then delivering the lessons. We have seen this club grow from a small group to a really nice size.
Isn’t it hard to imagine that 2010 has arrived? It was just a short time that y2k was the talk of the hour and that has been 10 years. We are ten years into this century, or as my kids say, 10 years older. Where is the new generation of Missionaries? I turned 58 in December. During my 30 years in Belgium I have seen missionaries come and then go. They all leave saying the same thing. “I have peace about what I am doing, because this is what God has told me to do”. I would love to see a few new missionaries come and lay claim to Belgium, just like Caleb did many years ago for his mountain. Pray that we see new missionaries that come to Belgium and stay.
Your Missionary,
Larry Taylor
