This letter was written just before the national elections are held here in the United States, which will have occurred by the time you receive it. Shirley and I are praying that God's people will turn out at the polls in record numbers, and that the outcome will be according to His divine plan. I can't imagine what this country will be like if those supporting the international abortion agenda are given power, if the traditional definition of marriage crumbles, if religious liberty continues to be assaulted, and if our burgeoning national debt and uncontrolled spending are allowed to take us over the cliff.
An even more serious concern is the prospect that two more extremely liberal Justices to the Supreme Court would be appointed by the current President of the United States. That could give the liberals a majority with which to "create the laws" for the next 25 years or longer. All of these disturbing consequences are up for grabs as I write this final pre-election letter. I hope you and your fellow Christians were praying for this nation as November dawned upon us.
One thing is certain. Regardless of the election outcome, it will remain our responsibility to stand for the family. As I'll mention later in this letter, there are some very exciting new initiatives and a big vision that I invite you to join us in accomplishing. Since I presently have no additional information on which to speculate about the outcome of the elections, let's talk about something uplifting.
November is one of my favorite months because it brings the Thanksgiving holiday. This is a time for gratitude to Jesus Christ for His many blessings to us, and for the gathering of families and friends.
We are grateful for your generosity and willingness to stand for the family. I am thankful to continue serving in new ways towards the same mission to which I was called so many years ago. You are such an encouragement to me to stay in the battle.
May you enjoy the love and fellowship of family and friends this Thanksgiving as we count our many blessings and remember God's goodness and faithfulness to all generations.
Sincerely,
