31 January 1/12th Of 2025 … Update – Dan & Nora

January’s been a blur and ushered in a great start to 2025!
Nora and I thank each of you who helped us start this year, praying and gifting us in so many ways, allowing us a good start into a New Year.


Our family had a great Christmas together, and we were blessed to have Jonathan stay with us well into January. Many great conversations and times together with each of our children! Nora even gave into some video game time with them. And of course, some thumb-wrestling as Eliana and Jonathan waited for a bowling lane. 🙂 And a great celebration of Nora’s Birthday on 21 January!


A highlight of December is when we are allowed to help so many others in the Middle East and other countries. This year, our partners in Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq/Kurdistan had special times together with children, their families, and gatherings. These are unique times of the year when many conversations and openings occur in who Jesus is. The children, of course, love the gifts … and always the parents are not far away, and hear of what Christmas is about. Many doors are open! Thanks immensely for being such an integral partner and provider in these special times in these countries!



Nora and I are trusting the LORD to allow this year to be one of His overflowing into our lives in unique and special ways. We together say with David the Psalmist, “my cup overflows” of the LORD’s goodness!!!
Psalms 23:5b-6a
“my cup overflows.
Surely your goodness and love will follow me
    all the days of my life,”

We are so grateful for you being alongside us in this great start into 2025!!!

&
Daniel and Nora
