Moving Forward!
It is thrilling to see all that God is doing through the worldwide ministries of Word of Life. In spite of the recent challenges that have affected almost everyone, we can clearly see God’s hand at work, and we are moving forward! Throughout this issue, you will read how the Gospel is changing lives, students are being encouraged to grow in their walk with the Lord, and God is providing for the ministry to expand and upgrade facilities. We invite you to join with us as we rejoice in God’s blessing. Seeing forward progress is exciting and encouraging. Yet we move forward because we have a goal in sight – we want to become more like Christ, realizing that our home is not here on earth, but our home is in Heaven.

Paul Bubar Home with the Lord
God’s desire for every believer is progress toward our heavenly goal. How are you progressing toward this goal? Can those who interact with you see a difference as you allow God to help you become the person He wants you to be? I pray this is true in my life and in yours, also.
