Dear Southview Community Church Members,
I greet you in the name of Jesus Christ and thank you so much for your letter of 24th March 2011.
I’m proud again for this occasion to write this letter, this time I take it very important as I told you because it is through letters that we can interchange information. I like the way you are progressing at your church and that is what our Lord wants us to do as long as we’re still alive.
Very important thing is to hear that next year, you are going to visit Rwanda. That’s grateful, you are welcome to the country of one thousand hills. I promise to give a recent photo in my next letter and it will be good if you also send yours to me.
I’m happy to hear that members of your church keep increasing and I think it’s a fruit of preaching the gospel and many strategies you have set in order to make people informed about God’s words. It’s also very wonderful to hear that you receive visitors at the church; it means that they saw something important from you and can learn from you what their life need is.
You are good friends and a gift I have been given, ooh Lord!! I don’t have the way I can express how much I’m happy because of you. Everything changes at the church you tell me, something important happens you tell me, may God bless you for your commitment and love.
Thanks so much for Judy’s personal information, it’s so good and from them I can learn many things. It’s good to hear about her son’s performance at school, that makes me work harder in class and I promise to do my best in order to get good marks. Judy is a good parent, the time she has been enjoying her son’s success, I came in her mind and pray for me. I’m sure that is the case to all of you. You love me a lot.
We’re about the beginning of final exams of the first semester, today we’re Thursday and I have first exam on Saturday. We’re revisiting our lessons for good preparation, I know you pray for me and me also I pray for you every day.
May God continue to be on your side in Jesus Christ our Lord!
Yours in Christ,
NIYONGABIRE Benoit.
