Hart - Florida

Hi from Florida! How is the new year going?

Carolyn began the new year with a new right knee. As her orthopedic doctor told her, “You now have a matched pair.” The therapy has taken a little longer on this one but she is making good progress. Her goal is to be able to go on an overseas trip this year.
Her remark to me today was, “When we go to see Dr. Hughes next time I need to get a statement from him to show the security people that I have two titanium knees when the alarm sounds.” I guess that means that she is bionic??

Bud has started two new classes at Suncoast Community Church. He teaches New Testament Survey on Monday nights and Bible Study Methods on Thursday mornings. There are some new students in each of the classes as well as those who are continuing on in the five course BTC program.

In March we will fly up to Philadelphia to participate in the missionary conference at Aldan Union Church (Bud’s home church). It will be good to see many old friends, stay with Robin and Bob in Havertown and speak on the closing Sunday morning of the conference.

We then return home to Florida and participate in the missions conference at Suncoast. Since we are on the committee planning the meetings we will be busy with schedules, displays, decorations and other details. Our promotion for the conference is starting and our theme is exciting and challenging, “Global Warning ..and our response.”

There are many things happening around the world, as you know, and we as Christians have a real task to bring a spiritual dimension to the problems, conflicts and suffering.

Another year – another year of challenge. We ask you to pray for us that we will make wise decisions, have good health and be effective in the ministry of teaching and training others to serve the Lord.

In His Grace,

Bud and Carolyn Hart
