We praise God for the 6 weeks spent in Ontario this summer. We kept pretty busy, spending time with family, including a weekend away with our kids and grandkids (20 of us) at a farm B&B, honouring Karen’s mom on the one year anniversary of her entry into heaven, celebrating a granddaughter’s 4th birthday and lots more! It was good to see George’s youngest brother and his family after 3 years. We reported at supporting churches (North Broadway in Tillsonburg, Otterville Baptist, Pinegrove in Bracebridge, and Calvary in Burlington) and a Chinese life group from Grandview Kitchener, attended a service at our sending church (Central, Brantford); spent time with our new ABWE Canadian president and his wife (John and Jacky Taylor) and had a zoom interview with the ABWE missionary care team. It was good (truly!) to finally get to the dentist again after 3 years. And we enjoyed being able to spend some time with several dear friends.
Since returning to the UK on September 12th, Karen has made contact with “her ladies” who are eager to get back to classes. These will begin September 20. An Afghan student says she has 4 new ladies who want to join!
George has been suffering from a bad cold this week delaying his usual “hitting the ground running” as well as his upcoming eye surgery.
Pray for the UK as they mourn the loss of our much loved and respected queen. May her testimony of faith in Jesus inspire others to believe.
We appreciate your prayers and support,
George and Karen King
