    Linnie, & Debbie. I am proud of each of you. Debbie, I have been watching as God has supernaturally blessed the things that you are doing and participating in from getting your visa by being escorted to the visa office by an ambassador to making it over to the meets with little or no problems and then the culmination of your preparation and blessing is being able to perform very very well. May God continue to bless you in your quest for Gold. Remember that God blesses us to be a blessing to others and not just unto our selves. Continue being a blessing.

    Linnie, I can also see the hand of God in your life. You are a blessing to us and I know your parents are so proud and pleased with you. I so enjoy when you call me. You are so polite and pleasant. Your problems are a joy to deal with as you bring calmness to the situation that helps me be able to help you. Take care each of you, Joseph and I continue to keep you all in our prayers and we are seeing the fruit of our labor.
